Peggy Phillips, PhD, QMHP
Hi, I’m Peggy! As a PhD-level Clinician and QMHP at Transform Youth & Family Counseling, I serve as a clinical innovator and master storyteller. I help youth and families rewrite their personal narratives, blending media arts, neurobiology, and creative expression to build lasting resilience.
The Professional StuffI hold a PhD in Counseling Psychology with nearly twenty years of high-acuity clinical experience. My practice uniquely integrates several specialized trauma-informed certifications and EAGALA (equine therapy) with my credentials as an International Yoga Instructor (IYI). By combining evidence-based behavioral science with Eastern somatic traditions, I provide families with a powerful, body-centered toolkit for nervous system regulation and trauma recovery.
The Personal StuffI am a lifelong storyteller, national keynote speaker, eight-time author, movie scriptwriter, producer, and actress. My career in communication spans from working as an on-air host for ABC and FOX networks, to serving as a radio DJ pioneering new programming on the nation's largest Ag radio network, to creating award-winning film and television stories. I bring this deep expertise in photography, videography, and multi-sensory media into both my therapeutic practice and my personal life, where I stay grounded by practicing yoga, exploring the outdoors with my family, and connecting with animals.
