About Philip
Philip Bloomer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 11 years of experience. He practices in Kentucky and helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, and many related struggles. Philip aims to listen without judgement and to be straightforward about what might help next.
He uses practical, goal-oriented work in sessions. Philip blends approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, mindfulness, client-centered conversation, and motivational interviewing.
How Philip works
He focuses on day-to-day changes you can try between meetings and on clarifying what matters most to you. Philip draws on personal and professional life experience, including recovery from his own mental health and substance use challenges. He earned a Master’s degree in Social Work after a first career in public service, and he brings that varied background into sessions.
That experience shapes how he talks about coping, purpose, and progress. Initial visits gather information about current struggles, history, routines, relationships, and goals. Philip then collaborates on a plan that mixes short-term problem solving with longer-term values work.
Sessions are direct but warm, with a focus on skills you can use right away. He offers appointments during standard weekday hours and can accommodate scheduling needs when possible. Philip welcomes people who want steady support, concrete tools, and a clear path toward the changes they want to make.

Online support options
How Philip Uses Evidence-Based Tools Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and moods interact and teaches practical techniques to change patterns that cause distress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Philip will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. He combines short-term problem solving with longer-term values work and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deep conversations and learning new skills, while phone sessions can be easier when less bandwidth is available. Chat or text can work well for brief check-ins, focused skill practice, or when a shorter touchpoint fits into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
