Welcome to Conscious Evolution! I am Phyllis Sage Atwell, MD, a psychiatrist with over 30 years experience in helping adults and adolescents navigate challenges and create meaningful changes in their lives. At Conscious Evolution, I offer a virtual only practice focused on Lifestyle Psychiatry and a mind-body approach to your care. This coupled with traditional psychiatric interventions means we look beyond symptoms and focus on the whole person; integrating sleep, nutrition, movement, relationships, stress management/ mindfulness and habits that may undermine your quest for optimal physical and mental health.
My goal is to provide thoughtful, personalized care that promotes growth, balance and purpose. If you are seeking a psychiatrist who values collaboration, depth and holistic healing, I invite you to begin your journey here. I am also skilled in the careful use of psychiatric medications and psychotherapy. Visit my website for more information.
I work with adults and adolescents who are ready to do the work of change- change in their lifestyle and focusing on the attitudes and behaviors that hold them back from wellness. With a focus on the creation of health rather than pathology, we can work beyond survival and achieve a state of thriving! I invite you to go to my website for more details.
