About Annie

Dr. Annie Phillips welcomes people who are navigating stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, life transitions, ADHD, or challenges with self-esteem and purpose.

Background and approach

She focuses on helping clients feel comfortable in sessions while working toward practical, personally meaningful goals. Her practice emphasizes empathy, genuineness, and an attitude of unconditional positive regard as foundations for change.

Using a flexible, client-centered stance, Dr. Phillips adapts her methods to fit each person's needs, drawing from cognitive behavioral and acceptance-based techniques as well as dialectical and existential perspectives when appropriate.

With 15 years of clinical experience in Georgia, she has worked across the lifespan and brings a broad base of knowledge to therapy conversations. Her aim is to partner with clients so they can develop skills for coping, improve relationships, and pursue clearer direction in life.

Dr. Phillips holds the credential GA Psychologist PSY003556 and has experience with issues including trauma, grief, addiction, codependency, communication problems, and compassion fatigue.

She aims to create an atmosphere where clients feel heard and supported while they explore change and build greater resilience.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Virtual Care

Dr. Phillips commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify values and build psychological flexibility; this approach supports people facing anxiety, stress, and life transitions by focusing on meaningful action. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which can be especially useful for mood, anxiety, and ADHD-related challenges. Additionally she uses Client-Centered Therapy principles to create an empathic, collaborative environment where the client's perspective guides treatment.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist partners with each client to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring to therapy, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or when in-person options are limited. These formats support ongoing skill building, conversational work, and checkpoint sessions so clients can engage in therapy from varied locations while working with a licensed professional.
