Cherrie Phillips is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and has been practicing since 2014, working in multiple settings including the community mental health setting, substance abuse residential facilities, and private practice. Cherrie has worked with various age groups ranging from as young as 5 years old up to later in life years. Cherrie prides herself on being a civil minded therapist, and particularly enjoys working with marginalized populations to guide them in unpacking and healing generational trauma.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Cherrie utilizes the first therapy session to focus on what you are seeking to address in therapy at this time, how emotional pain has contaminated various areas of your life, from work, to relationships to self care, and establishing expectations for creating a safe therapeutic environment for future sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Cherrie utilizes an integrated approach by using Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Attachment Theory and Psychodynamic modalities to empower her clients to rediscover their authentic self in order to live in their truth and happiness. Insight is the key, it's just not an easy door to unlock.

My treatment methods

Attachment-based

I provide psychoeducation on the four types of attachment styles and how your attachment style is influencing your relationships with others.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

We will utilize the four DBT modules (distress tolerance, mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectivness) to teach you more effective coping skills, how to process difficult emotions and improve your ability to effectively communicate with others.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

I utilize EFT in individual and couple's therapy to highlight the primary emotions which lead to destructive and harmful behaviors

Psychodynamic

Using a trauma informed approach, we establish themes and pathologies impacting your current day to day life due to unresolved, and often times suppressed, early life traumas.
