Reading, PA (09/29/2021) — Lindsay Phillips, Psy.D., of Norristown, Pa., has earned Albright College's Distinguished Alumni Award for outstanding service and accomplishment.

An Albright College class of 2000 graduate, Phillips is a member of the psychology faculty at Marywood University, teaching undergraduate through doctoral students. She has a particular passion for supporting student research and training clinicians, and has written and presented numerous publications on teaching psychology, training psychologists and other clinical topics. A licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania, Phillips is board certified in clinical psychology, maintaining a private practice in addition to her work in education.

After graduating summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in psychology from Albright, Phillips earned a master's degree in counseling psychology from Temple University and a doctoral degree in clinical psychology from Chestnut Hill College.

Earning a Judy E. Hall Early Career Psychologist Award from the National Register of Health Service Psychologists and a Teaching Resource Prize from the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues, Phillips shares her knowledge by serving on several regional boards and committees. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, she has devoted a portion of her private practice time to frontline and healthcare workers. And among other volunteer opportunities, she provides free consultation to organizations that promote successful re-entry from prison to society.
