Phylicia Currence , LCSW

Phylicia Currence is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions. She focuses on practical skills for clearer communication and stronger self-regard. Her work emphasizes women's issues and concerns common to young adults.

She uses a culturally aware approach that pays attention to identity and family background. Sessions look at attachment patterns and how early family relationships affect current choices. She also addresses abandonment, family of origin issues, and communication problems in straightforward, real-world terms.

Therapy with her includes goal-setting and skill practice. Clients learn ways to manage anxiety, handle money and financial stress, and clarify life purpose. The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

She draws on eight years of clinical experience as a North Carolina LCSW. That experience informs how she helps people build routines, set boundaries, and repair strained relationships. The focus is on small, usable changes rather than vague ideas.

Sessions often center on building self-love and resilience. Phylicia supports people dealing with multicultural concerns and the stresses that come with major life changes. The aim is to help clients leave sessions feeling a bit more able to face the next day.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Evidence-based techniques are used to help with common concerns like anxiety, relationship strain, and self-worth. One approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. Another concentrates on attachment and interpersonal patterns, helping people notice how past relationships shape current interactions and teaching concrete ways to respond differently.

Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up, then recommend methods that fit. This collaborative process means methods can shift as needs change and progress is tracked together.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for short check-ins, homework support, or when a quick touchpoint fits a busy day. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
