Pippa Hunt helps people who are struggling with anxiety, stress, low mood, trauma, relationship concerns and problems with self-esteem. She also supports people facing grief, addiction, sleep difficulties, parenting strain, career stress and compassion fatigue. Her approach is practical and person-focused so conversations stay relevant to real life.

Pippa works in a warm, interactive way. She listens without judgement and treats people with sensitivity and respect. Sessions are built around what the client wants to change and how they prefer to approach it.

Background and approach

She uses elements from Client-Centred Therapy to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, often called CBT, helps by identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small practical changes. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice patterns that repeat and might be linked to past experiences.

Pippa trained in integrative therapy and brings together these approaches when it fits the client. She believes the person is the expert on their life and that insight combined with small changes leads to progress. Her style is collaborative rather than directive.

Pippa holds BACP status, which is recorded here as BACP. She has four years of experience working with people in the United Kingdom. Sessions can be carried out through a range of online formats to suit different needs and lifestyles.

How Pippa’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding the person’s experience and following what matters most to them. In sessions the counsellor mirrors back what is heard and helps the person find their own solutions, which can help with low mood, self-esteem and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking that keep problems going and uses small experiments to test new ways of coping. That can be useful for anxiety, sleep issues, addictive behaviours and unhelpful thought cycles.

Psychodynamic ideas help highlight repeated patterns and early experiences that may shape current feelings and relationships. Bringing those patterns into view can make it easier to choose different responses in daily life.

Pippa treats finding the right method as a shared task. She will work with each person to choose which approach or mix of approaches feels most helpful for their goals and preferences. This is decided together and can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions can be done by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone can fit a shorter check-in or low bandwidth, and chat or messaging can suit people who prefer not to be on camera or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and health needs.
