Philip Bloomer, LCSW, LICSW

Philip Bloomer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW and Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, practicing in Kentucky with 11 years of experience. He helps adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and people wondering what comes next after big life changes. He also works with issues around ADHD, grief, intimacy, self-esteem, career questions and compassion fatigue.

Philip approaches therapy by looking at the whole of a person’s life. He considers daily routines, physical health, relationships, thought patterns and past experiences when talking through problems. Sessions involve gathering practical information up front so the work can focus on what a person wants to change or understand.

He uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods to help people manage symptoms, clarify values, and take small steps toward meaningful goals. His practice includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered listening, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. These are used to help with coping, behavior change, and decision-making.

Philip draws on both formal social work training and lived experience with mental health and substance use challenges. He trained later in his career after working in public service in England, and he brings that varied background into sessions. He aims to be direct and honest while avoiding judgment.

Initial appointments focus on gathering history and priorities so ongoing sessions address what matters most. People who want to talk about life purpose, career direction, or how to handle transitions may find this practical, wide-ranging approach useful.
