James Phillips

My communication style

I am focused on maintaining an environment of safety and comfort but also place emphasis on caring with every client as challenges, fears, and discouragement may surface from time to time during sessions. My hope is to always convey the idea that challenges, fears, and discouragement can be overcome rather than become overwhelming.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey started as a young, misguided child, needing and wanting to make a change, but I had no one to provide direction. This resulted in seeking a career to help others find different ways to navigate life's challenges as well as sustain life's successes by providing a listening ear and strategies to engage and activate a desire for changes.

My goals for you

In joining you on the journey and exploration toward positive mental health, my efforts are to increase personal and interpersonal growth while remaining authentic and purposeful. My hope is to engage you where you are in creating realistic, therapeutic goals and endure the journey alongside you in a safe environment so that you may embrace healing

Our first session

During the first session, I want to journey into your world, gain insight into your needs, and see where you would like to begin exploring. In gathering some background information, I am more capable of providing potential strategies during regularly scheduled sessions that allow for a desire to change, restart, refresh, and recharge.

I identify as...

• Male
• Black or African American
