Phil Medlyn, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Phil!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am trained in EMDR and other therapeutic modalities.

My focus

I work with individuals 16 years old and up. I work with those whose symptoms are negatively affecting emotional regulation, negative self-perception, work, and relationships.

My approach

I mainly use EMDR to reduce symptoms of Trauma, Anxiety, Anger, Guilt, and Self-Esteem.

My communication style

I create a safe and neutral space where you feel heard and understood. We will work collaboratively to develop a customized treatment plan to address your needs and goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have a passion for helping those heal. Providing therapy has given me a greater purpose than myself.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is collaborative. What would you like to achieve? When setting goals, having in mind, EMDR therapy is usually short-term.

Our first session

In our first session, I will be able to get to know you through a questionnaire. I will listen attentively to understand your unique situation, needs, and goals. Together, we will start developing a plan for how I can best support you moving forward.
