Dr. Annie Phillips

Dr. Annie Phillips helps people who are feeling stuck by focusing on practical steps and honest conversation. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, career concerns, relationship and intimacy questions, and issues like ADHD, addiction, grief, and depression. Her manner is warm and straightforward, aimed at making the therapy room feel comfortable and useful from the start.

She describes her style as client-centered, which means she adapts to each person rather than following a single script. Depending on what a person needs, she may use techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches, mindfulness, acceptance strategies, or dialectical skills. The goal is to help people notice what matters to them and practice changes that fit real life.

Dr. Phillips has 15 years of experience as a Georgia psychologist. Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns across adult life stages and clinical evaluations of thinking, emotion, and behavior. She uses those assessment skills to clarify issues and tailor treatment plans when needed.

In sessions she focuses on clear goals, practical tools, and building emotional awareness. Conversations often include skill practice between meetings and checking what feels helpful. She encourages people to test small changes and bring results back to the work together.

People seeking someone who combines conversational listening with evidence-informed techniques may find her approach a good fit. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients, and she helps people connect to next steps when they decide to begin.

How her approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small, value-based steps despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It’s useful for anxiety, life changes, career transitions, and low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior and practicing specific strategies to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship and listening first, which helps people feel heard and decide what change they want to pursue.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest methods that match those needs. Together they reassess over time and adjust techniques based on what is working.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into work breaks, managing days with childcare, or avoiding travel time. Online work also makes it easier to practice skills between meetings and to bring real-life situations into discussion. A collaborative plan will include practical homework and regular check-ins so progress aligns with everyday life.
