About Philip

Philip Moss is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado with 30 years of clinical experience. He works with adults who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship strain, or the pressure of putting others first. He also supports people facing codependency patterns, abandonment issues, parenting struggles, and career stress.

Philip uses straightforward conversation and practical tools rather than jargon. He helps people name upsetting thoughts and emotions, and practice small changes that make daily life easier. Mindfulness, meditation, and simple exercises are part of how he helps clients notice what matters and respond differently.

His approach blends client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. He also draws on existential ideas about meaning and purpose to help people who feel empty or stuck. Sessions can include creative elements such as guided breathing or art when that fits the person’s style.

Philip has long experience with trauma, sexual or spiritual abuse, and the effects of bullying and isolation. He has worked with people processing religious deconstruction and with LGBTQ concerns. He names life stressors plainly and focuses on concrete coping skills alongside broader questions of values and identity.

Outside of practice he reads, walks, spends time with family and his cat, and values meditation as part of everyday life. To begin he asks people to describe what they want to change, then works alongside them to set practical steps toward those goals.

How sessions work

How Philip connects therapeutic approaches with online work

Philip often combines client-centered conversation with cognitive behavioral techniques. Client-centered work means the therapist listens closely to what matters to the person and follows their pace. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes that reduce distress.

He also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills are practical steps for managing strong feelings, improving communication, and reducing reactive behavior. These approaches are useful for stress, anxiety, codependency patterns, trauma aftereffects, and relationship challenges.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match goals and preferences, and adjust as progress is made. That conversation happens early so sessions focus on what the person wants to change.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, or reduce the need to be on camera when bandwidth or energy are limited. Many people find this helps them use therapy more consistently while working on practical skills and clearer boundaries.
