About me

Hi, I am Sunny Philip. I have more than three decades of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, seniors, and families struggling with socioeconomic issues, behavioral problems, substance dependence, and mental health problems. I started my career as a community social worker and since then progressively worked and earned a wealth of experience in clinical social work, and psychotherapy techniques. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Florida. I am very excited about helping my clients. My goal is always to help my clients to understand the link between their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors as well as to help them have an insight about the impact of interpersonal relationships in the overall life outcomes, and assist them to work towards making positive changes in their lives, making use of different psychotherapy techniques including motivation interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, interpersonal psychotherapy, functional family therapy, and others. My effort has always been to utilize the best suitable and appropriate techniques and evidence based approaches to help my clients who are struggling with problems ranging from basic life issues to clinically diagnosed psychiatric disorders. I am always interested in helping my clients to progress steadily towards meeting their life goals and improving the quality of their lives.
