Lisa Phillips (LCSW)
LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER
I am Lisa M. Phillips, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 20 years of experience serving individuals, families, veterans, and communities across a variety of settings. My passion is helping people overcome challenges, build resilience, and improve their overall quality of life through compassionate, evidence-based care.
I earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Social Work from the University of Central Florida and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Florida. I am also a Qualified Supervisor, providing mentorship and guidance to developing clinicians in the field.
Throughout my career, I have worked in diverse clinical environments, including community mental health, hospitals, corrections, family services, higher education, military support programs, and veteran services.
Much of my professional experience has focused on providing intensive case management, mental health treatment, crisis intervention, assessment, treatment planning, and clinical supervision.
Currently, I serve as a Senior Social Worker with the Orlando Veterans Administration’s HUD-VASH program, where I provide intensive community-based case management and support to veterans experiencing chronic homelessness. I work closely with veterans and community partners to coordinate services, address mental health concerns, strengthen independent living skills, and help individuals achieve long-term housing stability and wellness.
My background also includes supporting wounded service members transitioning back to civilian life, providing mental health consultation to families impacted by domestic violence and high-conflict family situations, working in psychiatric and detoxification hospital units, and delivering mental health services within correctional settings. These experiences have strengthened my ability to support clients facing trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, mental health concerns, crisis situations, and complex life circumstances.
I believe that every individual has the capacity for growth, healing, and positive change. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their journey.
I look forward to partnering with you as you navigate life's challenges and work toward greater health, balance, and personal fulfillment.
