Phyllis Jacobson-Kram, LCSW, is a compassionate Clinical Social Worker and therapist who understands that feeling stuck and miserable does not need to be a life sentence. She has earned a reputation for helping clients gain a new and positive perspective on their problems and options, often within the first session. Utilizing powerful therapies such as EMDR, mindfulness-based techniques, somatic work, and trauma-focused approaches, Phyllis brings hope, humor, and optimism back into her clients' lives. Since 2014, she has trained with Stan Tatkin, the creator of the psycho-biological approach to couple therapy, enabling partners to understand their respective attachment styles and become each other’s supportive allies. With over 20 years of experience in using EMDR to address trauma, anxiety, and depression, she emphasizes that understanding a problem cognitively is not enough. Phyllis teaches her clients that emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations work together to shape their experiences—both positive and negative. Her therapy approach integrates all three aspects, focusing on transforming not only how individuals perceive themselves but also how they truly feel about themselves.
