Getting to know Dr. Phyllis Mogielski-Watson

Hello & Welcome, I am Dr. Watson, and I am happy to see you seeking services and reclaiming your joy. I commend you for taking the first step to improving your life. As a licensed psychotherapist in IL, AZ, and CO, with over 25 years of experience working with teens, adults, and seniors, I look forward to partnering with you through your transition and supporting you in getting back into your journey of life. I earned my PsyD in Clinical Psychology from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology and hold a Master's in Counseling Psychology from Benedictine University. I specialize in working with people in transition, including integrating better balance, managing life stressors, addressing health challenges, rediscovering wellness, and navigating mid-life changes. Other areas of specialty include grief and loss, women's issues, postpartum adjustment, multiethnic identity development, and generalized life struggles. Together, we will explore obstacles and hurdles while finding manageable strength-based changes that will improve your whole self-mind, body, and spirit. I partner with you on your journey and assist you in reclaiming your best self. Through mind-body connection and holistic approaches, I embrace creative therapeutic tools including talk, movement, music, art, and other creative avenues to ease expression of the challenges while finding your strengths and successes. My goal is to assist you in finding and retrieving your purpose while living with meaning. My clinical practice motto is “Love YOUR Journey ~ Live YOUR Life.”

What should a new client know about working with you?

Our initial sessions will review your history, identify symptoms, and explore what has already been tried. From a strength-based approach, we will set goals to work on in and out of sessions while discussing and exploring changes. After a period of working together, you and I will review symptom reduction and progress. Together we will assess continued services and inclusion of additional mind-body treatment tools.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
