I met Phil a couple years ago in the mental health and addiction counseling field. It has been an awesome experience getting to watch him grow and open his own private practice in Boca Raton Florida.
In Phil’s approach to therapy, the therapist and client are like companions walking a path together in the woods, with an uneven and dark road that may also be intimidating. As therapists, our duty is to stand by your side, holding a flashlight over your shoulder to guide you toward the necessary steps to take on your own path. Sometimes, we may use sharp sticks or carrots to motivate you, but ultimately, it is your responsibility to put in the effort.
Phil's approach to life and helping others is nothing short of miraculous being that he himself struggled at one point. His decision to get clean, sober and find what he is passionate about makes the journey worthwhile. If you are a loved one is struggling or you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to Phil at www.dudebreathecounseling.com Enjoy the show!
