Dr. Annie Phillips, GA Psychologist PSY003556

Dr. Annie Phillips works with people facing common and complex life struggles. She helps with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, career concerns, and problems like codependency or trouble communicating. She practices in Georgia and brings 15 years of experience as a psychologist. Dr. Annie Phillips holds the credential GA Psychologist PSY003556 and conducts sessions in English.

She uses a client-centered approach that focuses on the person in front of her. That means sessions usually begin by listening and shaping work around what matters most to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are used to help change unhelpful thoughts and build values-driven action.

Her work often includes practical skills for managing stress, coping with life changes, impulsive behaviors, and attention challenges brought on by ADHD. She also supports people dealing with trauma, addictions, anger, or compassion fatigue. Sessions can address midlife questions, parenting strains, or concerns about self-worth and isolation.

Dr. Phillips also offers psychological assessments that look at thinking, emotion, and behavior when more structured evaluation is needed. Those assessments are used to clarify strengths and challenges and to guide treatment planning.

People meet with her by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. International clients may be seen, and therapy uses a cancellable subscription model for sessions.

How these approaches work in online sessions

Dr. Phillips commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy when working online. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with simpler, practical steps to change behavior and mood. ACT helps people notice what matters most to them and build small, values-driven actions even when uncomfortable feelings are present.

She also emphasizes a client-centered stance in virtual work, which means the therapist and client decide together what methods fit best. That process starts with listening to goals and trying out approaches, then adjusting based on what feels useful and doable. The plan can change as progress and needs evolve, and the therapist helps guide those choices collaboratively.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexible options. Video is useful for a full conversation and teaching skills visually, phone works when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or text can suit people who prefer writing or need frequent brief support. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities.
