About Philip
Philip Bloomer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage anxiety, phobias, stress, addiction, and other concerns. He writes plainly and listens closely to understand what matters to each person. Sessions aim to identify practical steps that fit daily life and move people toward their goals.
He draws on 11 years of clinical experience and life experience to shape his work. Philip uses approaches that help people notice thoughts, clarify values, and change unhelpful habits.
Background and approach
He explains ideas simply and focuses on what a person can try between sessions. Philip treats a wide range of issues including trauma, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, sleep problems, parenting stress, and attention difficulties. He also supports people facing career changes, compassion fatigue, and struggles with self-esteem or body image.
His practice addresses substance use and related coping patterns when present. Philip trained later in life, earning a Master’s degree in Social Work after an earlier career. He holds LCSW and LICSW credentials and works from a broad social work perspective that looks at living situation, health, relationships, and meaning.
He is based in Kentucky and conducts sessions in English. New clients can expect an initial visit focused on gathering information and setting practical goals. Philip aims to be direct, nonjudgmental, and hopeful while helping people discover steps toward change.
He invites people to share their story and work together on the next chapter.
How Philip's Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate action, so they can focus on what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and offers small experiments and skills to change unhelpful routines. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the person sets the pace and goals.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Philip collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and daily life. He checks in and adjusts the plan based on what helps and what doesn’t.
Online sessions can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be a brief check-in or a way to process between longer sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments while keeping the focus on practical steps and progress.
