About Phillippa

Phillippa Stacy offers short, clear support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. She writes in a direct, compassionate way and focuses on helping clients untangle patterns that leave them feeling stuck. Her style is open and honest, aimed at practical change rather than jargon.

Phillippa draws on nine years of clinical experience and holds a BA (Hons) in Humanistic and Integrative Counselling. She is a BACP Therapist - Registered Member MBACP and also has a Diploma in Clinical Supervision.

Background and approach

These qualifications inform a client-centred way of working that keeps the person's priorities at the centre of each session. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thinking and behaviour cycles and choose different responses. She uses client-centred listening alongside approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to make small, manageable changes.

Work can include exploring attachment patterns, improving communication, and addressing body image or caregiver stress. Phillippa speaks from both professional and personal experience; she lives with a degenerative autoimmune condition and says that this perspective deepens her empathy for people facing long-term challenges. She aims to support clients in regaining agency and updating old personal scripts so everyday choices feel more helpful.

Her manner is practical and straightforward. Sessions focus on what you want to change and on steps you can try between meetings. Many people find that this combination of understanding and action helps them move forward when life feels overwhelming.

Online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes because it focuses on what matters to you rather than fighting every difficult thought. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses. It can help with intimacy-related issues, communication problems and feelings of isolation by identifying repeating patterns and trying different ways of connecting. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Phillippa will discuss different methods and agree together which fit your goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and she adapts methods as therapy moves forward. Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you keep face-to-face interaction without travel, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or health needs while still using the therapeutic tools described above.
