Great to meet you!

I'm Hazel Phillip, a therapist working with adults and seniors. I specialize in depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, stress management, and alcohol and substance use, and I also support clients navigating identity and women's issues. I bring a grounded, practical approach to therapy and am committed to creating a space where you feel comfortable being honest about what you're going through.

My approach to therapy

I work primarily through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). CBT helps us identify and shift the thought patterns and behaviors that fuel depression, anxiety, and stress, while SFBT keeps our work focused on where you want to go — drawing on your strengths and what's already working in your life. Together, these approaches make for therapy that's purposeful, practical, and oriented toward real change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a straightforward conversation. I'll ask about what's brought you in, what you've been experiencing, and what you're hoping to get out of our work together. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard and with a clear sense of how we might move forward — at whatever pace works for you.
