Philippa has been a great source of help for me so far as I've battled self-esteem issues both professionally and personally. She has given me tools to work with and checked in with me outside of live sessions to make sure I'm getting on okay. I couldn't ask for anything more in a therapist, and I deeply appreciate all our conversations together so far.

Hello and thank you for viewing my profile. My name is Philippa Whitelock and I am a registered Counsellor in the UK. I have been a qualified counsellor since 2019 but I do also have a wealth of life experience.
Life can be overwhelming at times, and we may feel that we don't have control of what is happening in our relationships, family, friends and work. We can be presented with many issues and not know how to process them. You want to speak to someone who will not judge. You want a safe space to talk through what is in your head and know you are free to be heard. Over time we can tend to bury what may have happened to us in our past and our present. These feelings and thoughts can be processed in a way that helps you grow into your awareness and healing.
I can help you have that safe space which is not going to be judging you because of what you have on your heart to say. I will help you become aware if there has been experiences past that you have not knowingly brought into your here and now. Working together in a therapeutic relationship that will enable you to reach an understanding of your whys.
I will work with you with a combination of Person Centred; where I will meet you where you are at that moment. CBT where we may look at though processes, actions and responses. If it is suitable I may give you tasks for you to complete to help you with what you are wanting clearer insight.
I would like to connect with you if you feel that you are ready to make a step forward to seeing your world in a clearer way, to have clarity, to be more aware of your thoughts and possible actions. It is OK to feel the feel the way you do. We can work together to help you discover the person you wish to be.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
