Brianne Phillips , LCSW

Brianne Phillips is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience who brings a broad range of clinical settings to her practice. She is licensed to practice in Kansas, Missouri, North Dakota, and Louisiana and holds the credential of Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor, a qualification that indicates specialized training in play-based interventions and experience supervising other therapists. Her work has taken her into schools, private practice, hospital settings, foster care systems, and programs supporting survivors of domestic violence, giving her a wide perspective on how life circumstances shape behavior and relationships.

She approaches therapy with a holistic outlook that considers the full context of a person's life rather than focusing on a single issue in isolation. Drawing on methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, she helps clients explore how their perceptions influence feelings and actions, then supports practical changes in thinking and behavior to produce different outcomes. Her experience includes helping people navigate parenting challenges, relationship conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, career and life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, anger, and intimacy-related struggles.

Brianne aims to create a collaborative environment where clients feel heard and valued from the first session. She emphasizes teamwork - working alongside clients to identify strengths, test new approaches, and track progress so they can try new ideas and begin to see meaningful change.

Approach-Driven Online Therapy with Flexible Care Options

Brianne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to stress, anxiety, depression, and difficulties in relationships. This approach focuses on practical skills and strategies to change thinking and behavior patterns that get in the way of daily functioning.

She also employs Solution-Focused Therapy, a short-term, goal-oriented method that emphasizes strengths and actionable steps. This approach helps clients clarify goals, build on existing resources, and test small changes that can produce meaningful improvements in specific areas like parenting, work, or relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Brianne works collaboratively with each client to determine the best fit based on needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore which techniques feel most useful and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy schedules or caregiving responsibilities. Sessions can occur via video call or phone, and shorter contacts are available through live chat or text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to receive support in ways that fit their lives. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and apply new skills between sessions.
