About Phillippa
Phillippa Stacy helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles and grief. She also supports those dealing with anger, addiction, sleep or eating concerns, and the fallout of trauma and abuse. Phillippa offers practical, straightforward help for everyday problems that feel overwhelming.
She uses an open, honest style in sessions. Conversations are direct but warm, and focus on what is getting in the way now. Phillippa encourages people to notice patterns, try small changes and build clearer ways of coping with life’s demands.
Background and approach
Her practice draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas. These approaches help people understand emotions, clarify values, and improve how they relate to themselves and others. Cognitive Behavioural techniques and a client-centred stance are also used when helpful.
Phillippa holds a BA (Hons) in Humanistic and Integrative Counselling and is a BACP Therapist - Registered Member MBACP. She has nine years of experience and provides clinical supervision for other therapists as part of her work. She also speaks from personal experience of living with a long-term degenerative autoimmune condition.
That life experience informs her empathy and practical understanding of chronic illness, caregiver strain and end-of-life concerns. Phillippa aims to help people regain agency, update old patterns, and make choices that fit their values.

Online support
How Phillippa’s approaches translate to online therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding emotions and how they shape relationships and personal patterns. It helps people identify key feelings and work through them to change painful cycles. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills to accept difficult feelings while clarifying what matters most, so people can take meaningful action even when things are hard. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and self-view, helping people notice and shift those habitual responses.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Phillippa will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level. Together they will try techniques, check what helps, and adapt the plan as therapy progresses.
Online work offers practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer to write things out or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, manage health-related mobility limits, or maintain contact across distances while working with registered or accredited professionals.
