About Pippa

Pippa Hunt is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, sleep problems, parenting strains, anger, career pressures, compassion fatigue and ADHD. Guilt and shame are also part of her focus.

Pippa uses an integrative approach that draws on client-centred work, psychodynamic ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques. She treats the person rather than the problem and helps people talk through what matters to them. Her way of working is interactive and practical, with an emphasis on the client's own knowledge about themselves.

Sessions usually explore how past experiences and present patterns connect. That can mean looking at recurring thoughts, unhelpful behaviours and early relationships that continue to affect day-to-day life. Cognitive behavioural tools are used when helpful to break down problems into small, manageable steps.

She can also bring in life coaching elements when a clearer plan or short-term goals are useful. Conversations are shaped around the client's priorities, so therapy can focus on symptom relief, problem solving or deeper personal reflection depending on what is needed.

Pippa encourages people to notice small changes and test new ways of coping between sessions. She asks questions, offers reflections and helps clients pick practical strategies they can try. People who want to begin are invited to use the service's matching process to arrange an initial appointment.

How therapeutic approaches can work in online sessions

Pippa combines client-centred work with cognitive behavioural ideas and psychodynamic thinking, and those approaches can translate into online conversations. Client-centred work focuses on listening and following what the client brings, helping them name feelings and priorities. Cognitive behavioural methods break problems into clearer thoughts, feelings and actions and suggest experiments or small changes to try between sessions. Psychodynamic thinking looks at patterns that repeat over time, helping people notice how past experiences shape current relationships and responses. Finding the best approach is part of the work itself. Pippa will discuss goals and preferences with the client and decide together which methods to emphasise. That makes sessions a collaborative process where techniques and pacing are adjusted as needs become clearer. The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work or family commitments and saving travel time, which can make it easier to maintain regular meetings. If you want to know which specific session formats she currently offers, confirm the options before booking through the service's scheduling flow. Registered or accredited professionals often combine reflective conversation with short practical tasks that can be used between meetings to support everyday coping.
