01About Phyllis
Phyllis Siebern is a licensed professional counselor who draws on several years working across mental health settings. She focuses on giving clear tools people can use when stress, anxiety, anger, depression, or addictive behaviors feel overwhelming. Phyllis aims to create an accepting space where people feel heard and understood.
She uses straightforward conversation and practical skills rather than jargon. She often mixes gentle humor with direct guidance to make hard topics easier to talk about.
Background and approach
Sessions center on what the person needs right now and small steps they can try between meetings. Phyllis bases much of her work on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which teaches coping skills for strong emotions.
She also draws on mindfulness practices to help people notice their experience without getting swept up by it. These approaches are chosen to match the concern and the person's preferences. Her background includes experience with trauma and abuse, eating concerns, bipolar mood challenges, self-harm, personality disorder issues, forgiveness work, and self-esteem rebuilding.
She aims to help people break down big problems into manageable pieces and learn skills they can use day to day. Phyllis practices as an LPC in Arizona and speaks English. People who prefer remote options can work with her through multiple online session formats that fit different schedules and needs.

04Online support
Approaches that translate to online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with simple behavioral experiments. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when someone wants clear steps to change patterns.DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive behaviors. It includes techniques for grounding, emotion regulation, and improving relationships when feelings feel overwhelming.
Mindfulness therapy involves short attention practices that help people notice their thoughts and physical sensations without getting swept away by them. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and improving focus in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review a person's goals, preferences, and the problem at hand, and then suggest one or a mix of methods. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and needs change.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face from wherever they are, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports faster check-ins, and text messaging can be used for brief reflections or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and try different formats to see what works best.
