Phyllis Babrove, LCSW

Phyllis Babrove is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with ten years of experience. She supports adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and major life changes. She also works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, depression, anger, low self-esteem, and career uncertainty.

Before moving into private practice, she worked in several social work roles. Her background includes crisis counseling, school social work, and work with children and families involved in abuse situations. She has experience with adolescents in diversion programs and with children who had emotional, behavioral, or substance use issues.

Phyllis has co-facilitated parenting groups that focused on improving communication with teenagers. That practical group work informs how she structures conversations and sets small goals in individual sessions. She uses straightforward methods to address immediate problems and to build everyday skills.

Her clinical approaches include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Systemic Therapy. In sessions she combines listening with concrete steps people can try between meetings. She helps people break down big problems into manageable actions.

People who want to make changes after a job shift, a loss, or a relationship transition can expect clear, practical work. She meets with individuals and with couples, and she draws on her varied social work experience to address family-of-origin and communication issues.
