About Tyrina

LCSW Tyrina Phillips has 10 years of clinical experience and practices in Florida. She works with adults facing trauma, addiction, mood struggles, relationship and family concerns, and the everyday strain of stress and caregiving. She commonly supports people dealing with depression, anxiety, compassion fatigue, and life transitions.

Phillips draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques to create clear, practical steps. She uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing to help people notice patterns and find motivation for change. Narrative and solution-focused ideas often shape short-term goals and next steps.

Much of her work has focused on people with dual diagnosis and trauma who need better coping skills. She describes therapy as a partnership where she both motivates and challenges clients toward their goals. Plans are developed for each person rather than applied the same way to everyone.

Her education includes studies at Lynn University and Barry University in Florida. As an LCSW she brings ten years of practice experience to common concerns like substance use, relationship strain, and mood disorders. She asks practical questions and helps people test small changes between sessions.

People seeking help for family-related stress, caregiving strain, or trouble managing emotions may find her practical style fits their needs. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details.

How sessions work

Using client-centered and CBT approaches online

Phillips combines client-centered ways of working with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people identify difficult patterns and try practical changes. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can decide what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors to create specific steps for change. Mindfulness teaches simple attention and grounding skills to reduce reactivity and handle stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together the therapist and client decide which methods to emphasize and how to break progress into manageable tasks.

Session format details should be confirmed before booking, since the biography does not list specific online formats. Ask about which formats are currently offered and how sessions fit into your routine. Many people choose remote sessions because they are easier to schedule around caregiving, work, or travel, and because short check-ins can be arranged when needed.
