About Philip
Philip Moore is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 20 years of practice. He works with adults who are dealing with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anger, depression and anxiety. Sessions use straightforward language and focus on practical ways to handle problems that are affecting day-to-day life.
He frames therapy around the person’s own experience and strengths. That means listening first, then trying methods that suit the individual. Philip blends Client-Centred work with Cognitive Behavioural and psychodynamic ideas to make sense of patterns and reactions.
When anger causes problems at home or work he looks at what sparks the feeling and what keeps it going. That can include past hurts, control issues, guilt or shame, and difficulty with boundaries. Philip also supports people facing grief, addiction, sexual and intimacy concerns, sleep or eating issues, and the stress of life changes.
His practice pays attention to symptoms like panic attacks, dissociation, self-harm thoughts, and ongoing trauma responses, and he approaches these within the therapeutic relationship rather than as quick fixes. He also works with clients exploring identity and LGBT issues, men’s concerns, and struggles with isolation or low self-esteem.
Philip describes therapy as collaborative. He helps people set realistic steps, test new behaviours, and track what changes. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to agree goals and next steps.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s perspective at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens and follows what matters to the person, helping them shape goals and decide what to try next. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and trying specific exercises to reduce symptoms like anger or panic attacks. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends to the effects of traumatic events and uses methods that slow down and stabilise reactions before addressing difficult memories.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Philip treats this as a collaborative process. He will discuss what seems most useful, try a method, and adjust based on how the client responds and what fits their goals and preferences.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people choose sessions that suit their day-to-day routines, whether that means a simple phone call or a longer appointment that includes worksheets and guided exercises.
