About Phylicia
Phylicia Currence is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with eight years of practice. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family concerns, self-esteem issues, and life changes. Her work includes attention to family of origin issues and attachment-related patterns that continue to affect adult life.
She focuses on practical skills and clearer communication. Sessions often look at patterns people grew up with and how those patterns show up in current relationships. She helps clients notice expectations, roles, and repeated reactions that feel automatic and unhelpful.
Currence pays attention to cultural background and to how money or life purpose questions factor into everyday choices. She also works with people facing abandonment concerns, family problems, or difficulties forming self-love. Conversations may include problem-solving, practicing new ways of speaking, and reflecting on past family habits.
The approach is collaborative and straightforward. Clients and the therapist set goals together and try out different ways of responding between sessions. Progress is discussed in concrete terms so steps forward are clear.
She provides services in English in North Carolina. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the online options button.
Approaches for addressing family patterns and relationships
Phylicia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on how earlier relationships shape present behavior. One approach looks at attachment patterns by identifying how people learned to get needs met in childhood and then testing new ways of relating in current relationships. This helps when old reactions lead to repeated conflict or withdrawal. Another common focus is communication skills training, which teaches concrete ways to express needs, set boundaries, and respond differently during disagreements. That work can reduce ongoing tension and improve day-to-day interactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will review what feels most relevant and adapt methods based on the client's goals, background, and preferences. The therapist and client plan steps, try strategies in sessions, and adjust as needed so the approach fits the person rather than the other way around.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Many people find online sessions helpful because they fit into busy schedules, make it easier to keep appointments around work or family demands, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss format options during the matching questionnaire and first session to decide what will work best for practical needs and comfort.
