Philip Bloomer is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker practicing in Kentucky, Ohio, and West Virginia. He brings 11 years of clinical experience and offers therapy to people of all ages for mental health and substance use concerns, either alone or in combination. He has also worked with couples and families to resolve relational difficulties.
As a social worker, Philip considers the whole of a person’s life - where they live, physical wellness, relationships, thinking patterns, past experiences, emotions, and what gives life meaning and purpose - and incorporates those areas into treatment. He approaches care without judgment and is direct and honest with clients, maintaining strict confidentiality for what is discussed in sessions.
Philip trained later in life, earning a Master’s degree in Social Work at age 40 after an earlier career with the British government. He was born and raised in England for the first 30 years of his life and retains elements of his accent. He also draws on personal experience, including his own struggles with mental health and substance use, when connecting with and supporting others.
Philip practices during standard office hours, Monday to Friday from 8:15 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time, and has accommodated individual scheduling needs in the past. An initial visit focuses on gathering information so he can better understand how to help. He uses a variety of therapeutic approaches aimed at helping people manage problems, identify priorities, clarify what they want from life, and take practical steps toward their goals.
For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or managing life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person care. It can be an effective option for people seeking accessible, regular support.
An important benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect with therapists by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging, choosing the format that best fits their needs and schedule. This flexibility often makes it easier to maintain consistent engagement with treatment.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and clients may change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, remote therapy offers a practical way to receive skilled support without sacrificing quality of care.
