Therapists in Caledonia, MN

Hello, I'm Vanessa. I am an LPCC in Minnesota and California with over 9 years of experience counseling children and adults. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings counseling individuals and children with needs in Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Childhood Trauma, Grief/Loss, and Substance Addiction. I approach my client's with a warm and non-judgmental demeanor. We live in a world that can go so fast at times. It is important to remember how to take care of ourselves and our mental health. My goals for clients are to remove the stigma of mental health and to advocate for education and better understanding of how their mind functions. Many times, we just need reminders about how to reconnect with a more centered version of ourselves. I enjoy using mindfulness strategies and thinking skills to support a healthy mind. I have an eclectic approach to therapy where I often find strategies to meet my client's needs where they are at. I also recommend that my clients take stock of how they take care of their physical bodies. Our mind and body are so connected. There are times when one is communicating, but the other is not listening. My approach to therapy is getting connected with thoughts and feelings in the moment and using strategies to relieve unnecessary pain and suffering. At times, our pain and suffering can have meaning, however, we can also place undue stress on ourselves. Taking responsibility for our happiness is a choice that takes courage and strength. I look forward to supporting your needs and getting to know you. This experience is to re-engage with you as the expert of your own life.

I want my help to be what you need and will work with you to individualize your treatment to fit your unique needs.

I'm a licensed professional clinical counselor and marriage and family therapist in Minnesota with over 15 years of professional mental health experience. It's not uncommon to experience worries, stress, sadness, transitional hurdles, and relationship struggles. Sometimes we just need to talk it through with someone neutral and nonjudgmental, regain our sense of self and direction, and take it one step at a time to get our momentum back again. I believe we have the answers we seek, and we simply need affirmation and support to get to that place we envision. I'm open to hearing your story and collaborating with you on those next steps to where you want to be!

Welcome! My name is Brianne Phillips. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Kansas, Missouri, North Dakota, and Louisiana, and hold the credential of a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor. Over the past 17 years, I have spent my time as a social worker in various settings: in schools, in private practice, in a hospital, with youth in foster care, and with survivors of domestic violence. Even though the settings were all different, one thing stayed the same. Our success and challenges are influenced by our lived experiences and our perceptions of these experiences. I have helped people cope with change, parenting challenges, relationship stressors and conflicts, trauma, and managing the everyday stressors that go along with life in general. When I’m working with clients, I genuinely want to get to know you. Starting sessions with a new therapist can seem a bit intimidating. Making sure you feel heard and valued is important to me. I want you to know you’ve got someone in your corner. For me, learning about the different parts of your life is important as we embark on this journey. As a social worker, I believe in taking a holistic approach to therapy; looking at the big picture rather than one tiny segment. Once we see where you fit into the big picture and how your perceptions and experiences have shaped your behavior, we can begin to challenge your thought processes to change your thinking and/or past behaviors. We all know the saying, “If you continue to do the same thing, you’ll continue to get the same result.” I am confident that as a team, you and I can take on the challenges you’re facing, so you can try new ideas and begin to see positive results.
