Originally from Ghana, Phebe is licensed to see clients in both Washington State and DC and specializes in working with adults, families, and couples dealing with work stress, trauma, and issues related to their immigrant identities. She is currently a second-year doctoral student in the Counselor Education and Supervision program at Antioch University – Seattle.
