Phillip practices social justice counseling and works as a sex therapist committed to the emotional and physical healing of individuals and communities. He employs a humanistic approach to help individuals better understand themselves, find meaning in their life experiences, and move toward emotional reconciliation. Phillip believes that therapy can be a vital part of the healing journey, though it does not define the entirety of that journey. His style is solution-focused and rooted in brief, evidence-based mental health services that support both personal and professional growth. The goal is to help individuals navigate the world as the person they aspire to become, rather than feeling confined by difficult or traumatic experiences. Drawing from clinical social work, sexology, and law, Phillip’s practice centers on equity, trauma-informed care, and culturally grounded treatment that challenges harmful stereotypes. His work also connects clinical care with community engagement and policy awareness, guided by the belief that healing encompasses both personal and social dimensions. Additionally, Phillip is a member of the armed forces, an educator, and a retreat facilitator who helps create spaces where people of color can show up fully, feel deeply, and heal in community.
