About Phyllis

Phyllis Babrove is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida who brings a decade of experience across a range of social work settings. She pursued her education later in life and has since worked with children and families involved in abuse situations, provided crisis counseling, supported adolescents in a diversion program, offered family counseling, and served as a school social worker. Her background also includes working with children who had emotional and behavioral challenges and substance abuse issues, and co-facilitating parenting groups that focused on improving communication between parents and adolescent children.

Phyllis approaches her work with compassion and empathy, and she is known for being easy to talk to and nonjudgmental. She believes in treating everyone with equal respect and values helping people find greater satisfaction and balance in their lives. She works with both individuals and couples and uses a variety of therapeutic methods, including Solution-Focused Therapy, Systems-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Writing Therapy. Her goal is to support clients as they take steps toward reaching their full potential and achieving meaningful change.

Phyllis offers flexible scheduling, including evening and weekend availability, to accommodate clients with varying needs and commitments.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client as the expert on their own life. The therapist offers empathetic listening, validation, and support to help clients explore feelings and values, which can be especially helpful for issues like grief, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, examines the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors, CBT can be effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with change.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on strengths and practical steps toward change. It helps clients set clear goals and apply small, manageable strategies to improve relationships, communication, and daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Phyllis works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they prioritize strategies that feel manageable and relevant to the client’s life.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules. These options allow clients to connect with licensed professionals from home, during work breaks, or while traveling, supporting consistent progress and greater access to care.
