About Dr. Emelda Phillip

I am a licensed psychotherapist in New Jersey with over 19 years of professional work experience.
I have a Masters (M.A.) and a Doctorate (Psy.D.) in Counseling Psychology. I also specialize in Wellness for Women and Women of Color.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, motivation, self- esteem, confidence, depression, & coping with life changes.
My therapeutic approach is wellness-based care and a combination of Psychodynamic, CBT, and Client-Centered Therapy.

I work with my clients to create an open, safe and therapeutic environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
