Pippa Hunt, BACP

Pippa Hunt helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She supports those dealing with relationship strain, grief, sleep problems and addiction. She also assists with self-esteem, parenting worries, anger and career questions. Pippa uses straightforward conversation to work through practical concerns and emotional pain.

Pippa practises from a person-centred perspective that puts the client’s experience first. She listens without judgement and encourages people to find their own answers while offering gentle guidance. That approach suits someone who wants a supportive, collaborative space to talk.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours. That method can help when anxiety, low mood or unhelpful habits get in the way of daily life. Pippa blends this with psychodynamic ideas to help uncover patterns that repeat across relationships and choices.

In session she aims to be warm and interactive, adapting the pace to each person. Conversations are practical and grounded - looking at what changes might make everyday life easier. Goals and techniques are agreed together so sessions stay relevant to the client’s needs.

Pippa is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has four years of experience working with a range of concerns and presents herself as respectful and compassionate. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by various formats.

Therapy approaches and how they work online

Client-Centred Therapy places your experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens deeply and helps you to explore feelings and choices so you can make changes that feel right for you. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress. That approach is helpful for worry, low mood and habits you want to change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and try different ways of working until something fits. This is a collaborative process where techniques are chosen based on your needs, preferences and what you want to achieve.

Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let you have a full conversation with visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who find writing helps them reflect. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health demands and give more choice about how to stay connected with a therapist.
