Hans Philippen

Hans Philippen

Ph.D.

Specializes in lifespan treatment for children, adolescents, and adults with a clinical focus in cognitive behavioral therapy.

Hans Philippen, Ph. D.

Therapy is expected to enhance cognitive, emotional and interpersonal strengths. Social and academic or vocational performance are often a focus of treatment. Children, adolescents, and adults of all ages are all encouraged to use appropriate means to mitigate stress, manage anxiety, improve mood, and promote resilience.

Areas of specialized training include trauma, memory, organization, attention and impulse control, and enhancing partner and family relationships through communication, conflict resolution, anger management, and restoration of trust. Specialized treatment is also available for persons with more chronic developmental or health needs seeking to maximize independence and life satisfaction.

Dr. Philippen values the principles of dignity, confidentiality, resilience, and respect. Collaboration is incorporated into all aspects of treatment planning to ensure flexibility and freedom from bias, promoting positive change, and supporting the expectation of healing and growth. His orientation is Humanistic with a clinical focus in evidenced based Cognitive-Behavioral therapy.

Client Focus
Age: Children (6 to 10), Preteen, Teen, Adults
Participants: Individuals, Family

I believe in finding what therapy approaches work for each client on an individual basis. I do not believe in applying the same therapy for all clients. I tend to utilize skills and approaches related to Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and other treatment modalities.

Let's work together to identify and better understand each other and the concerns you are having. We will then explore motivations and help power you to make and see positive changes in your life. I will use my training and experience to help you learn, practice and apply calming and problem-solving coping skills.
