Work With Me

I work with individuals who are ready to rebuild their relationships with themselves and improve their self-esteem.

Understand Patterns

We explore the internalised messages that have shaped your behaviour and core beliefs about yourself with curiosity & compassion, strengthening your awareness of unconscious patterns that keep you feeling stuck and unable to make meaningful changes. Making the unconscious conscious = more personal choice.

Live Authentically

With new awareness of your unconscious patterns, drivers & conditioning, you have more space to figure out which beliefs, values, opinions & traits actually belong to you and guide the life you want to live. What’s your definition of success? What makes life meaningful and worthwhile for you?

Accept Imperfection

We challenge perfectionist thinking and the fear of judgement keeping your world small. This can look like reworking your relationship with failure, reconnecting with the parts of yourself you have labelled unacceptable, and giving yourself permission to be a flawed & multifaceted human, free from unrealistic expectations.

Make New Choices

I support you to feel emotionally safe enough to make conscious choices that align with what you really want and need, rather than acting from old patterns and wounds that provide predictability & familiarity.

  • "I'm deeply grateful to Philippa. After years of previous counselling, she saw I needed specific tools to help me not just understand my past but to FEEL better,"

  • "I've grown a lot over the last four months working with Philippa. I'm able to talk about how I feel instead of shoving things down and becoming resentful. This work has done so much for my relationships,"

What to expect from therapy:

  • Sessions are conducted via Zoom and run for 60-minutes and usually on a weekly or bi-weekly basis for consistency and efficacy.

  • Our first consultation will clarify what you have outlined in your enquiry and give us a chance to get to know each other so you can decide if you wish to book an initial session with me.

  • There is no limit on the number of sessions you can have as long as they are of therapeutic value. We will review after six sessions and give you an opportunity to choose how you want to move forward.

  • You are under no obligation to continue therapy with me if you decide I am not the right fit for you and may end at any time.

  • I offer a free 20-minute Zoom consultation and my fee for full 60-minute sessions is £45. Concessionary rates are available for students and trainee counsellors.

Let’s work together.
