About Phyllis
Phyllis Skeeter is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia with 10 years of experience. She works with people on relationship and family concerns, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and depression. She also focuses on adoption and foster care matters, postpartum concerns, pregnancy and childbirth, impulsivity, self-love, and issues that affect young adults.
Phyllis uses straightforward, practical conversation to help people sort through immediate problems. She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and to try different behaviors. Sessions tend to focus on small, manageable steps that can change daily routines and reduce stress.
When family conflict or relationship strain is part of the problem, she helps people name patterns and practice new ways of responding. For pregnancy, postpartum, and adoption-related concerns she listens for practical stressors and works on coping strategies that fit into busy days. She also addresses concentration and focus challenges by breaking tasks into clearer steps.
Phyllis treats depression by combining short-term skill work with regular check-ins on mood and function. She aims to help people notice what they already do well and build on those skills. Conversations are concrete and goal-oriented rather than abstract.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location. People who need services in languages other than English should confirm options before booking.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Phyllis uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a core method. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and tests small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like low mood, anxiety, or relationship stress. It is practical and task-focused, which adapts well to remote conversations and homework between sessions.Working together, she will help clients find which techniques fit their situation. That means discussing goals, trying methods, and adjusting plans based on what actually helps. The process is collaborative and guided by day-to-day needs and responsibilities.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into work, childcare, or school schedules. Online work can allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and make it easier to follow up on behavioral experiments between meetings. A therapist and client can agree on practical arrangements that suit the client's routine and goals.
