Hello,
Thank you for viewing my profile. I would be honored to work with you!
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience working as a counselor and life coach. I am licensed in Georgia and have worked with individuals from various backgrounds with a variety of concerns. I have assisted individuals in addressing issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, women's issues, work challenges, stage of life issues and grief/loss (to name a few).
My counseling approach is collaborative, compassionate , empathic and warm. I believe everyone should be heard from a non-judgmental perspective and treated with respect. I utilize strategies that include: cognitive behavioral, client-centered, solution-focused, psychodynamic and motivational interviewing counseling. We will work together to address your specific concerns and create a customized solution focused plan.
I commend you for deciding to pursue counseling. It takes courage to decide to make positive life changes. I would love the opportunity to assist you in moving forward to create the the change you desire.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I went through a few professionals who weren’t a good fit and then I found Phyllis. I am happy with our work thus far and I’m sure I’ll continue to grow from our sessions.
