Brianne Phillips, LCSW

Brianne Phillips is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who brings a practical, compassionate approach to therapy. With a background spanning schools, private practice, hospital settings, foster care work, and support for survivors of domestic violence, she draws on diverse experience to help people navigate transitions, relationship strains, parenting challenges, trauma, and the everyday stresses of life. She is licensed in Kansas, Missouri, North Dakota, and Louisiana and also holds the credential of Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor - a qualification that reflects specialized training in play-based methods and the ability to supervise other practitioners.

Brianne believes that how people interpret their experiences shapes their choices and outcomes, so she focuses on understanding the whole person rather than isolating a single issue. That holistic view helps identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems in place and opens the door to practical shifts in thinking and action. She uses evidence-informed tools to challenge unhelpful thought patterns and to test new approaches in real life.

Beginning therapy can feel intimidating, and Brianne prioritizes creating a space where people feel heard and valued from the start. She views the therapeutic relationship as a team effort - working collaboratively to set goals, try new strategies, and measure what helps. Her aim is to support clients in experimenting with different ideas so they can move toward meaningful, sustainable change.

Approach-Focused Online Support with Flexible Access

Brianne Phillips integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy into her online practice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors by using practical exercises and structured techniques - it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on your strengths and goals, emphasizing short-term, goal-oriented conversations that help uncover what is already working and how to build on it for faster progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Brianne works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. She tailors sessions so that strategies are practical and aligned with each person’s life circumstances, checking in and adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers greater flexibility and accessibility for people balancing work, family, or other commitments. Brianne provides support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make it easier to connect in ways that suit each client’s schedule and comfort level. These options help maintain continuity of care and allow clients to practice strategies in real-world settings between sessions.
