About Phillip
Phillip Hawk is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who brings 24 years of experience to sessions. He focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship tensions, addictions, trauma, and sleep problems. He speaks English and works with clients from Illinois and beyond.
Phillip aims for straightforward, respectful conversations. He listens first, then helps people sort priorities and set clear goals. Conversations are shaped to each person, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Background and approach
He uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts, habits, and values. That can mean learning practical skills for managing anxiety, changing patterns that deepen depression, or finding ways to cope after loss. His background includes supporting people facing family conflicts, caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, and complex co-occurring concerns.
He also works with challenges such as impulse control, communication problems, blended family issues, and the stresses experienced by first responders. The first session is a chance to describe what matters most and agree on next steps. Phillip helps create a plan you can try between sessions and revises it as your needs change.

Online support
How ACT and CBT work online with a therapist
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Online ACT sessions often focus on practical exercises, noticing what matters, and small steps you can take between meetings to move toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In video or phone sessions CBT typically involves identifying patterns, testing new ways of thinking, and practicing behavior changes that reduce anxiety or improve mood. Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try one method, then adjust if something else seems a better fit. That collaboration helps tailor treatment to your needs and preferences. Online sessions offer practical benefits for many people. Video calls provide face-to-face conversation when travel is difficult. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let you check in between sessions or fit a shorter meeting into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and flexible while working on skills from ACT and CBT.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you.
