Professional statement

Dr. Warren Phillips is a clinical psychologist specializing in helping high-achieving professionals navigate the pressures of a demanding career and personal life. His clients are often successful leaders, executives, and consultants who, despite their accomplishments, find themselves feeling disconnected, irritable, and running on empty. They may recognize that the same drive that fueled their success is now contributing to burnout and a sense of being a "provider" or "caretaker" rather than a present partner, parent, or friend. Dr. Phillips provides a confidential space for individuals to address these challenges head-on.

Dr. Phillips utilizes a practical, skills-based approach grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Understanding that his clients are results-oriented, the work is active and collaborative, focused on providing tangible tools to manage the "stress" that manifests as a short temper or a racing mind. Clients learn to handle difficult thoughts more effectively, allowing them to unhook from the relentless pressure to perform and reconnect with what truly matters, like family, connection, and personal well-being.

To accommodate the demanding schedules of his clients, Dr. Phillips conducts all sessions via a secure and convenient telehealth platform, serving individuals across Iowa and Minnesota. He invites you to schedule a complimentary consultation to discuss your goals and learn how a pragmatic, action-oriented approach to therapy can help you feel more present and engaged in your own life.


Message to clients

You've built a successful life through hard work and drive, but it may have come at a cost. If the relentless pressure is leaving you feeling disconnected, irritable, or simply burnt out, I want you to know this isn't a personal failing. It’s a sign that the very strategies that brought you this far are no longer serving you.

My approach is active and pragmatic. I know your time is valuable, so our work will be collaborative and skills-based. Using proven methods like ACT, you will learn practical tools to unhook from your inner critic and manage difficult emotions effectively, rather than just talking about them. The goal is to build the psychological agility you need to handle stress and reconnect with what truly matters, both at work and at home.

All sessions are conducted online to fit your demanding schedule. I invite you to reach out for a brief, introductory call to see if my approach is the right fit for you. I look forward to helping you build a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.

Therapist's note

​At Timberline Psychological Testing, I strive to offer the highest quality of service and prioritize your individual needs. One significant reason I do not work with insurance companies is to avoid the restrictions and limitations that often accompany insurance policies. This allows me to provide more personalized care, as I can tailor our psychological testing and interventions based solely on your unique requirements rather than conforming to insurance guidelines.

It is always your choice whether you would like to apply for insurance reimbursement or not. Usually insurance companies will pay a portion of your spending, depending on your policy. As such, if you decide to seek reimbursement, I will provide you a “superbill” which includes the standard information (such as diagnosis and treatment codes) that most insurance companies require. You then submit the superbill to your insurance company for reimbursement.
