About Phillippa
Phillippa Stacy specialises in helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. She also supports those facing addiction, anger, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and career or life-change challenges. Phillippa works with concerns such as bipolar mood swings, compassion fatigue, and coping with chronic pain or illness.
Pillippa draws on nine years of clinical experience and is a Registered Member of the BACP, which she holds as BACP.
Background and approach
Her style is straightforward and warm. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk through what feels stuck and explore practical ways to move forward. Her practice blends person-centred listening with evidence-informed approaches.
Phillippa uses methods that help people notice patterns, test new responses, and build skills for day-to-day life. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and small, achievable changes. Phillippa also brings personal lived experience of a long-term degenerative autoimmune condition.
That background gives her an informed perspective on chronic illness, caregiving stress and end-of-life concerns. She uses that insight to be compassionate while still being direct when needed. People who work with her can expect an honest, non-judgemental approach.
Phillippa encourages self-agency and practical steps that fit each person’s situation. Her aim is to help people rewrite unhelpful patterns and regain a clearer sense of choice and direction.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose or adapt methods so sessions feel relevant and realistic for everyday life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for more in-depth conversations, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging lets people check in between sessions or use a shorter format. These options make therapy more flexible and help fit support around work, family and health commitments.
