About Philip

Philip Bloomer helps people who are worn out by stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, relationship strain, or big life changes. He writes simply and directly, so parents who are worried can quickly see how he works. Philip is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - LCSW - and also holds a LICSW credential.

He practices in Kentucky and brings 11 years of professional experience to his work. Philip focuses on the whole person.

Background and approach

He looks at daily routines, relationships, physical health, thinking patterns, and past experiences to understand how they combine to affect well-being. Sessions are practical and straightforward, with room to talk about emotions, values, and what matters most to you. He uses a mix of approaches drawn from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, mindfulness, acceptance and commitment strategies, and motivational interviewing.

That lets him tailor sessions to each person's needs and goals. He helps people set small steps, try new behaviors, and notice what changes in their mood and relationships. Philip speaks English and has personal experience with recovery and mental health challenges, which he draws on when it helps the work.

He typically meets during standard office hours, Monday through Friday, and is used to gathering details in the first visit so treatment can start in a focused way. His style is honest and nonjudgmental. He invites people to tell their life story, to name what they want to change, and to work together on realistic steps toward those goals.

Approaches Philip names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It focuses less on eliminating difficult thoughts and more on living a meaningful life despite them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is often a process. Philip works collaboratively to match methods to a client's goals, needs, and preferences rather than using one fixed method. He will discuss options, try approaches that fit, and adjust based on what helps the person make steady progress.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief updates, homework, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines while working with licensed professionals.
