Terri Phillips

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Kentucky and Indiana, originally from Chicago, and I’ve worked with individuals across all stages of life, from early childhood through older adulthood. My experience includes trauma-informed care, parenting support, substance use treatment for adolescents, and perinatal mental health.

I’m trained in EMDR and also support individuals navigating challenges during and after pregnancy. My goal is to provide a supportive, compassionate space where you feel understood and not alone as we work through what you’re facing.

My approach is flexible, strengths-based, and person-centered. I draw from a variety of methods, including CBT, EMDR, motivational interviewing, and narrative and play-based techniques, depending on what best fits your needs.

I focus on meeting you where you are and creating a safe, accepting environment where you can feel comfortable opening up. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on, build on your strengths, and create a plan that helps you move forward in a way that feels meaningful and manageable.

In our first session, we’ll spend time getting to know each other and talking through what’s been going on and what you’ve experienced. We’ll also begin to explore what you’d like to work toward.

There’s no pressure to have everything figured out—this is simply a starting point. Together, we’ll begin building a path forward that feels supportive, clear, and tailored to you.
