Phillip Howard

My communication style

I prioritize clear, open communication to create a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment. I will always give you opportunities during sessions to share, and reflect upon, your experiences and thoughts. My past and current clients would tell you that I'm friendly, upbeat, and honest.

My journey to mental healthcare

I found my way to therapy living and working across three continents, through careers in the theatre, and in teaching at all levels up to post-graduate professional development. My clinical and life experiences have helped teach me the value of community, and a strong and dynamic sense of self-worth which is essential to successful therapy.

My goals for you

I work with clients who are struggling with any aspect of their life, past and present. During our sessions we will get to know each other and collaborate to address problems in a way that helps you get your life back. The majority of my clients see gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

Our first session

In our first session together we will start to establish the rapport that is essential to effective therapy. After explaining the legal details of confidentiality, which is key to helping clients feel safe in their therapeutic work, I will start to learn about you and your needs and hopes as I start the process of assessing your needs and goals.
