Philip accepts Aetna and Cigna for individuals

Philip sees individuals ages 12+

Meet Philip

Philip Grandjean is a compassionate counselor dedicated to helping adolescents and adults navigate life’s challenges and discover their fullest potential. He specializes in supporting those seeking to improve anxiety, depression, identity development, relationship issues, communication skills, emotional skills, self esteem, athletic performance, and other concerns related to overall relational, mental and emotional wellbeing. Philip takes a holistic approach to therapy, fostering self-awareness and self-compassion to help clients build a strong foundation for personal growth and lasting change.

Philip’s expertise extends to athletics and performance psychology, where he helps athletes and performers unlock their potential by connecting with the values and experiences that drive them. Aside from being a lifelong competitive athlete, he combines experience as a basketball coach, golf coach, and caddie with his counseling background to connect with athletes and performers of all levels. He works with clients to overcome mental barriers, improve focus, and achieve peak performance in both their athletic and personal lives.

Philip incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Existential Psychology into his work. These approaches help clients gain insight into what truly matters to them and how they can align their thoughts, behaviors, and actions with their core values and goals.

Originally from Houston, Texas, Philip has always been passionate about creative and athletic pursuits. He earned his Bachelor’s in Psychology from Texas A&M University and completed his Master’s in Counseling at the University of North Texas at Dallas.

Philip believes that perspective is one of the most powerful tools for transformation. Through his own experiences, he has seen how broadening awareness and analyzing our beliefs can help us change the way we perceive ourselves and the world around us. He views each individual as powerful, having an innate light within them, a source of strength and potential. Sometimes, this light may feel dimmed by the things that happen to us, overshadowed by negative thought processes, or blocked by external pressures, but Philip is committed to helping clients rediscover and harness that light, guiding them toward greater confidence and clarity.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain, Philip is here to walk alongside you, offering an accepting and open space to explore your difficulties and reignite the flame of hope and self-belief. His goal is to support and challenge you to tap into your inner resources, reorganize faulty beliefs, and create a fulfilling life aligned with your values and aspirations.

Joni is in-network with Aetna, BCBS, and Cigna

Joni sees individuals ages 13+

Joni specializes in teens and adults, especially those with ADHD and other learning differences. She understands that not all brains work the same way and celebrates the unique strengths that each person develops through their life. She has a passion for helping clients navigate life transitions, learn how to “adult,” and find direction and meaning in life. She also specializes in managing anxiety and depression and working with clients with nerdy interests, such as video games and Dungeons and Dragons. Joni honors the uniqueness of every client, affirming those who are LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, marginalized, or are simply looking for someone to accept and welcome them for who they are. Her counseling philosophy is based in Existential-Humanistic Therapy, but she also integrates methods from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, as well as other techniques and methods based on her client’s unique needs. Like Irvin Yalom, an American existential psychiatrist, Joni aims to “create a new therapy for each patient.” Joni’s ethnic background is Korean and Dutch; she is the child of first-generation immigrants and grew up with mixed, cultural influences. When she is not working, she enjoys playing video games and tabletop games, especially fantasy RPGs and Indie games. She also enjoys spending time in nature, birdwatching, listening to alternative and electronic music, lifelong learning, and hanging out with her partner, Andrew, and their cat, Tony.
