About Phatcharee

Phatcharee (Patch) Welling is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom with seven years of practice. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, parenting and related concerns. Sessions are aimed at practical change and building coping skills.

Patch focuses on the whole person rather than a set of symptoms. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. She also uses client-centred listening to keep conversations grounded in what matters to the client now.

Cognitive behavioural tools appear in her work when clients want clearer strategies for managing thoughts, sleep, eating or mood. Hypnotherapy and existential discussion are used at times to address deeper meaning, motivation or repeating patterns.

She often helps people who are coping with family issues, grief, parenting strain, addiction and relationship difficulties. She also supports those facing identity questions such as LGBT concerns, or people juggling career stress and caregiving responsibilities.

In sessions she aims to relate with respect and sensitivity while working on practical skills like emotional regulation and communication. The therapist will share tools, short exercises and ways to build resilience that can be used between meetings.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Payment is handled through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. Online conversations can map those patterns and identify moments to try different responses in daily life.

Client-centred work focuses on attentive listening and following what matters most to the client. In remote sessions this often means checking in on immediate concerns and building plans that fit everyday routines.

Cognitive behavioural techniques give practical steps for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. These tools can help with sleep, eating, mood, anxiety and coping strategies between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, and then agree a plan together in a collaborative way.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to link therapy with daily life, for example by fitting a short check-in around work, avoiding travel time, or choosing a quieter meeting when concentration is needed. Registered or accredited professionals can also adapt exercises for remote use so practical skills can be practised between meetings.
