About US
Dr. Jada Philips, PhD
Soul Mirrorer | Intuitive Strategist | Psychologist | Speaker
Where clinical wisdom meets intuition and soul. Here, I hold up the mirror so you can release what’s not yours, come home to yourself, and reclaim your worth as you awaken your path forward.
Welcome
The Awakening Studio is more than a practice; it’s a sanctuary. A place to pause, breathe, and begin the gentle return to yourself. Here, healing and growth meet both the science of psychology and the wisdom of spirit.
My Story
The Awakening Studio was born out of my own journey of remembering myself.
For a long time, I lived in the rhythm of doing, taking care of everyone else, proving my worth through hard work, and shape-shifting to keep the peace. On the outside, it looked like I had it all together. Inside, I was carrying the weight of responsibilities, expectations, and energies that were never mine, and there was a quiet ache I kept ignoring.
The turning point came in a meditation I had done before, but one time, it hit differently. I opened a door inside and stepped into a presence I hadn’t felt in years: my higher self. She met me with an embrace of warmth, love, and fierce welcome that made me cry. She said, “I’ve missed you so much,” and I said it back, “I’ve missed you too.”
In that moment, I knew exactly what she meant. I felt how distant I had been, disconnected, unaware, carrying on without even realizing the depth of my own absence. It was the part of me I had abandoned, not intentionally, but from habit. That moment cracked me open and called me back to myself, body and soul.
Since then, my path has been about coming home and helping others do the same. I’ve blended my training as a psychologist with practices that honor the body, the spirit, and the energy we carry. It’s why I created The Awakening Studio: a space where you can put down the weight you’ve been carrying, release what was never yours, clear the energies that weigh you down, and remember who you are.
What I Bring
My approach blends psychology and energy work so healing feels both practical and soul-centered.
I weave together approaches such as:
EMDR – for processing and healing trauma
IFS – connecting with your inner parts and restoring self-leadership
EFT – releasing stuck emotional patterns
CBT – reshaping limiting thought patterns
Brainspotting – accessing deep body-based healing
Energy Work – for renewal and integration
Alongside these, I integrate practices like Reiki, Human Design, and the Body Code, helping you tap into your intuition, align with your authentic rhythm, and restore balance on every level.
Why The Awakening Studio Exists

Grayson Armbrecht, Executive Assistant
Cultivating Innovation and Supportive Excellence
Hello, I’m Grayson Armbrecht, and for nearly three years I’ve been honored to serve as Dr. J’s executive assistant. It’s been a fulfilling journey to contribute to both The Awakening Studio and Reserved For You® Psychological Services, supporting the vision and values of this work.
I hold a BA in Psychology from the University of Alabama and am currently in my second year of doctoral studies at the Hawai‘i School of Professional Psychology through Chaminade University. My areas of specialization include forensic, military, and neuropsychology. In Hawai‘i, I volunteer at state correctional facilities, where I provide diagnostic assessments and train in civil case specialties such as custody evaluations.
My background also includes work in recovery and addiction, HIV/AIDS recovery counseling, and ABA therapy. Each of these experiences has enriched my perspective and skill set, which I’m grateful to bring into my role at The Awakening Studio.
Outside of my professional commitments, I enjoy outdoor adventures, cooking, reading, and time with my dog, all of which remind me of the importance of self-care and balance.
I am deeply grateful to be part of The Awakening Studio and look forward to contributing to our mission and the meaningful opportunities ahead.
