About Philip

Philip McKee is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has ten years of practice in the United Kingdom. He helps people with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, LGBT concerns, grief and loss, and issues around self esteem and life purpose. Philip also works with guilt and shame, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.

Philip keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He offers a place to talk through difficult feelings and confusing thoughts. He focuses on what feels most pressing for each person and on steps that can be tried between sessions.

His experience includes supporting people through bereavement and the difficult emotions that follow loss. He also helps those working to manage addiction-related challenges and the anxiety that can affect daily life. Philip pays attention to how social situations, fears of being judged, or past shame can shape behaviour.

Philip aims to work collaboratively. He listens to the story someone brings and then outlines options they might try together. Sessions involve discussing concerns, making small plans, and reviewing what helps.

Sessions are conducted in English and Philip accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should use the platform matching steps to confirm current session options and practical details such as timing and cost.

How therapy approaches are used in online sessions

Philip draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical changes. One commonly used approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new ways of thinking and behaving; this supports work on anxiety and social fears. Another approach concentrates on developing skills to manage strong emotions and urges, which can be useful for stress and addiction-related concerns.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. Philip treats this as a collaborative process and discusses different methods with each person. Together they decide which techniques to try based on the persons goals and what feels manageable in day-to-day life.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy around work and family commitments and removing travel time. Online work can make it easier to join from different locations and to schedule shorter check-ins when needed. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to make sure timing and arrangements meet your needs.
