Phyllis Babrove, LCSW

Phyllis Babrove is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with ten years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, depression, and related issues. Phyllis draws on several therapy approaches to help people manage symptoms and make clearer choices in their daily lives.

She began social work after attending school later in life and has worked across different settings. Her background includes child welfare and family work in abuse situations, crisis counseling, diversion programs for adolescents, and school social work. She has experience with children who had emotional or behavioral difficulties and with substance use issues.

Phyllis has co-facilitated parenting groups focused on improving communication with adolescents. That practical group work informs how she supports parents handling day-to-day challenges and caregiver stress. She also has experience working with blended family concerns and family-of-origin issues.

Her clinical approach mixes client-centered listening with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. She uses Systemic Therapy ideas to look at how relationships and family patterns affect current problems. Writing-based work is part of her toolbox when it fits a person's needs.

Sessions are described as conversational and nonjudgmental. People who want straightforward, practical help with boundaries, communication, or coping skills often find this style helpful. To start, the profile asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
