I specialize in utilizing art therapy with individuals of all ages who are struggling with anxiety. When you are experiencing stress, overwhelm, grief, or times of change, it often affects every aspect of life. Art therapy is an engaging, collaborative form of therapy that combines traditional talk therapy approaches with the creative process. My adult clients often want to uncover new insights and explore themselves deeply to grow and heal, and my child and teenage clients are excited to use therapeutic art, writing, and play to process their experiences and learn new coping strategies.

In many ways our relational environments and contemporary lifestyles do not not support well-being. Typically we spend so much time in thought and disconnected from our own body and other somebodies. Our minds are on overdrive, revving up our autonomic nervous systems and alienating us from the present moment and from one another. As a therapist I bring the body into the conversation. Through mindfulness and somatic practices we slow down the pace, observe the body’s language and lovingly craft a more compassionate response.

We often put self-care on the back burner. If you feel stuck, low or overwhelmed, now is the time to start therapy and make positive change in your life. There is no problem too small or big; work and relationships, postpartum and parenting, trauma and grief all deserve reflection and healing.

Previously, I worked as a psychologist at New York Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Irving Medical Center’s Pediatric Psychiatry Department for 7 years.

As a psychologist I work collaboratively with my clients to address their concerns (both in-person and via teleheath). I have extensive experience working from an interpersonal perspective with adolescents and adults dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family issues, trauma, loss and adjustment to life changes (e.g. illness, divorce). I believe it is important to explore how a client's family background, culture and social environment play a role in the challenges my clients are experiencing. I view people as resilient and help clients to use their strengths and resources to make positive changes in their lives.

Your mental health matters. Therapy requires vulnerability and the courage to do something different especially when you're hurting. If you have become overwhelmed by difficulties that make it hard for you to function, you have come to the right place. If you are an empath like me, you know that the formula for living your best life is to heal your emotions. Family and friends cannot always help you get through the challenges of life; a good therapist can. The power of healing is a remarkable feeling.

My greatest strength is my ability to create a non-judgmental, supportive, trusting relationship. Together, we will explore why you have chosen to come to therapy and we will find the approach that best meets your needs. You will gain the insight to break dysfunctional patterns of behavior and interaction in your day to day relationships. I will help you to better regulate your emotions and to cope with stressful situations. We will focus on your strengths as well as your challenges as you learn the skills needed to become the person you were meant to be.

Daily life has become challenging trying to balance our families, relationships, careers and goals. You may be feeling overwhelmed, experiencing anxiety that won’t allow you to move forward and you just can’t seem to get out of your own head. Perhaps you feel ready to take the steps to improve your quality of life, but you don’t know where to start. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe space where we can openly discuss any obstacles and recognize patterns that may be holding you back. I now offer Telemental health sessions using a confidential computer platform so you can be in the comfort of your own home.

You may be struggling through a painful time of life, but you’ve taken an important step by looking for support.

With this, you may find relief and be able to get moving again. I'll be fully present and curious alongside you, while sharing insights as they emerge. It gives me great joy to help people to feel stronger, more hopeful and able to tackle life again.

Do you ever feel like you “should” have everything sorted and things “should” be moving along as planned, but for some reason they are not? You have moments where you feel okay, even some days you feel good, but then even more moments where you feel overwhelmed, anxious and unsure about the future. Do you feel stuck, like you’re not in control of your own story? Are you ready to be more present, to find and cultivate greater levels of joy, peace and balance in a world that seems to be full of uncertainty. Together, I believe we can reach past our old habits and expand our ways of being and experiencing life with courage and grace.

Does this sound like you or your child? Bright but not reaching your potential. Grades and evaluations that do not reflect their abilities. Constant battles over homework and following directions at home, unexpected outbursts, and a general sense of exhaustion (for everyone involved). Managing medication has also become challenging, and its effectiveness is uncertain. All you want is for others to see the wonderful person beneath these struggles. To address these challenges underlying these issues, I utilize a unique approach that integrates neurofeedback with counseling.

Hi, I'm Dr. Phillips! I work in New York City and Montclair, NJ and am currently taking new clients in both locations. I have worked with youth and families from many different backgrounds and believe in two fundamental truths: (1) modern life, in different ways, can be very hard for any person, regardless of one's circumstances, and (2) we are all trying our best, but sometimes we get “stuck.” I specialize in working with children and adolescents, and their families who are trying to understand and support them.

I am an avid LGBTQ supporter and have a deep commitment to human rights and exploring the gender spectrum as part of a healthy journey in life. I also help parents understand, support and accept children who are in the process of questioning their gender.

I have more than 20 years of experience in working with individuals from all walks of life. I have helped many people dealing with depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, low self-esteem, and stress. Taking the step to enter therapy can be scary, but is often a very powerful experience. I believe that problematic early relationships can often cause roadblocks to happiness and satisfaction in one's current relationships. I provide a very safe, sensitive, non-judgmental environment where I can offer practical solutions to the problems of life, and offer the hope of positive change and personal growth.
