Pippa Hunt , BACP

Pippa Hunt is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She also supports clients dealing with relationships, parenting pressures, addiction and struggles with self-esteem. Pippa works with a broad range of life changes, including grief, career shifts, and issues around intimacy and sleep. She lists Women's issues among her areas of focus and brings four years of practice to her work.

Pippa uses a warm, interactive style in sessions. She believes each person knows themselves best and treats people with respect and compassion. Conversations are tailored to what the client needs that week rather than following a fixed script.

Her work draws on client-centred approaches that prioritise the person's perspective. She also uses practical cognitive behavioural techniques to address anxious thoughts and unhelpful patterns. Psychodynamic ideas help look at longer-standing patterns that might be driving present difficulties.

Pippa is registered with BACP, which means she follows recognised professional standards. She offers counselling in English and practises from the United Kingdom. Sessions combine listening with practical steps so clients can try small changes between meetings.

People who contact Pippa usually start by describing the immediate problem they want to change. Together they plan what to tackle first, and review progress as therapy continues. Her approach suits those who want a collaborative, down-to-earth counsellor who balances support with practical tools.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Pippa uses client-centred therapy which focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. This approach helps people feel heard and supports them to find their own solutions to stress, grief or relationship strain.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT to help spot thinking patterns that increase anxiety or low mood. CBT provides practical exercises and simple tools to try between sessions, which can change unhelpful habits over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, and then choose or combine methods that suit the person. That plan is reviewed and adapted as progress is made, so therapy remains collaborative and goal-orientated.

Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different days and routines. Video calls are useful for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone sessions use less bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to use video. These formats make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring responsibilities or health limitations, while keeping the therapeutic focus on practical change and emotional support.
