We believe that at the root of all of our physical and emotional wounds lies a spiritual need. By sharing biblical principles and through the application of scripture, clinical pastoral skills, and practical tools we look forward to facilitating the transformation that God so desires for our lives.
COMMITTED TO A HIGHER STANDARD
Phil is committed to meeting the expectations of his patrons and working hard to help people. This matches the mission of Higher Appeal, serving the greater Milwaukee community in counseling through life's hardships and changes.
The idea of counseling/coaching is for them to listen in order to help you. Phil takes his position very seriously. I believe he heard every word I said, to know what should or could be done next.

I have had opportunities to interact with Phil both personally and professionally. In each case I find him to be someone of great wisdom and perspective. He has great skill in being able to look into the heart of a matter quickly, speaking to issues that are often difficult with an even and balanced hand. This has my trust and as such, my recommendation.

We came to Phil for premarital counseling, and he did a wonderful job. We held our sessions over Skype and everything ran very smoothly, even in a different time zone!

Phil is strong professional with years of counseling experience. He lead my wife and I through counseling and it brought us closer together with a better understanding of each other. Communication lessons were so important. Great counselor. I would HIGHLY recommend Him.

Counselor is very caring and compassionate. Immediately felt safe when sharing difficult thoughts and feelings. Guidance was very helpful since the start. Counselor provided education and feedback about the nature and possible causes of my struggles. Best care experienced so far.
