Brianne Phillips, LCSW

Brianne Phillips is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Kansas, Missouri, North Dakota, and Louisiana and holds the credential of a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor. LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a credential for providing clinical social work services, and the Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor designation reflects specialized training and supervisory qualifications in play therapy.

Over the past 17 years, she has practiced across a variety of settings including schools, private practice, hospitals, work with youth in foster care, and support for survivors of domestic violence. Although those environments differed, her work has consistently centered on the idea that personal history and individual perceptions shape both strengths and struggles. She has supported people through parenting challenges, relationship conflicts, trauma recovery, grief, and the everyday stresses that accompany life transitions.

In sessions, Brianne aims to build a genuine understanding of each person's experience. She recognizes that beginning therapy can feel intimidating and places emphasis on making people feel heard and respected from the start. Her approach looks at the whole of a person’s life rather than isolating one small piece, helping clients identify how past experiences and current thoughts influence behavior. From that broader perspective, she collaborates with clients to examine thought patterns and try new strategies so different outcomes become possible.

Brianne works collaboratively with clients, offering steady support while encouraging experimentation with new ideas and approaches. She brings practical experience and a team-oriented mindset to help people address the challenges they face and pursue meaningful change.
