About Annie

Dr. Annie Phillips is a Georgia psychologist (GA Psychologist PSY003556) with 15 years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, anger, grief, addictions, ADHD, depression, and coping with life changes.

She uses a client-centered base in her work. That means sessions focus on the person's concerns and preferences. She draws from cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and existential perspectives when they suit the client's goals.

In sessions she helps people name what is getting in the way and practice new responses. Conversations can include skills practice, values clarification, and looking at unhelpful thinking patterns. She also offers psychological assessment work that looks at cognitive, emotional, and behavior functioning.

Her background includes 15 years across a range of ages and life stages. That experience informs a straightforward style that balances talking through problems with practical steps to try between sessions. People often focus on communication, control issues, codependency, intimacy-related concerns, or career stresses.

Dr. Phillips accepts clients from Georgia and international clients in English. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Dr. Phillips uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take action toward those values, even when strong feelings get in the way. ACT can be useful for anger that ties to avoidance, guilt, or persistent unhelpful thinking.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change thought patterns and behaviors that escalate anger. CBT often includes practical exercises and homework to test new responses between sessions. Client-centered work shapes the relationship so the conversation reflects the client's pace and priorities.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dr. Phillips will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person's needs. That collaborative process lets the therapist and client adjust strategies over time based on what actually helps.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For people balancing work, family, or caregiving, that flexibility can help maintain regular appointments and practice new skills in everyday life.
