Feel free to call her for a complimentary 20 minute phone session.  It will give you a better sense of how it would be to work with her.  If you are not sure about entering therapy, ( if you are asking questions like: if it's the right time?, do my issues warrant therapy?, my partner doesn't believe in therapy?) Call her, she would love to talk with you.  Please feel no obligation.  If the fit isn't right she is happy to refer you to someone else.

Phyllis's approach is "post modern" which means rather than focusing all  of a clients time and energy on the "problem", she instead works on solutions. Putting the power back where it belongs, with the individual. Additionally, Phyllis' unique perspective on the single life, which she has gleaned from her extensive work with couples has gained her accolades. She often speaks to and leads groups for successful, single women.

She also hosted  a drive time radio show Shrink Rap on KCSN FM in Los Angeles which streamed worldwide and made LA Magazine's "Best Of" List. Phyllis served as a Supervisor of Interns at the Southern California Counseling Center, and was also Adjunct Faculty member of Otis College of Art and Design. She is  a Certified Life Coach and Weight Wellness Specialist. 

Phyllis is a graduate of Boston University, cum laude, The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, and Phillips Graduate Institute. She is a lifetime member of CAMFT and served as President of the PGI Alumni Association for 4 years.   In addition to her private practice. Phyllis works as an on-line therapist through MyTherapyNet.com.
