Intro

On your journey of self-discovery and mental wellness, Philip Welches, PhD, largely known for his skilled practice as a Clinical Psychologist, serves as a reliable place to start. Guided by profound philosophies, his aim is to enable individuals to unlock their inherent purpose, and passionately commit to it. Drawing inspiring insights from Siddhartha Gautama (Buddha) and Abraham Maslow, he emphasizes the power of the present and the potential it holds for transforming your life.

At Philip Welches' practice, it's acknowledged that the responses we have to challenging thoughts, feelings and urges often confine us, hindering our capacity for purpose-driven living. However, through establishing a supportive and collaborative therapeutic relationship, the practice provides you the platform to explore your authentic values and free yourself from mental and emotional complexities. With a focus on Acceptance-Based Therapy for Mental Health, and personalized recovery strategies for substance abuse and addiction, you’re supported in the process of understanding your situation, accepting your experiences, discovering your purpose, and striving towards a life filled with personal meaning.
