Rev. Phillip Deming, LMFT

She brings 25 years of professional experience and works to make sessions feel approachable and understandable. People who want to include their faith in therapy can do so, and sessions are offered in English from California.

Her style emphasizes listening first. She creates space to talk through strong feelings without judgment.

That calm, steady presence guides how she helps people identify patterns and try new ways of coping with pain or loss. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioral changes.

Those practical steps pair with mindfulness practices to reduce overwhelm and improve sleep and focus. Narrative work is used to gently reframe difficult life stories when people are ready.

Rev. Deming has worked with adults facing family conflict, caregiving stress, chronic illness, trauma and abuse, and issues tied to identity and sexuality.

She offers tools for managing compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, and relationship challenges. Her background includes long-term roles supporting people through major life transitions and loss.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and grounded. She helps set clear goals and checks in on progress.

If faith matters to someone, she will honor that belief system while avoiding any pressure to follow it. Therapy is offered through video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging, using a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Prospective clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire to schedule appointments.
