SME News Q1 2024 / 14 Hilary’s work with integrative counselling is a holistic approach to therapy that combines several different therapeutic elements and helps clients explore their emotional, mental, physical, social, and spiritual wellbeing. By focusing on the whole person, integrative counselling aims to create balance between the body, mind, and spirit. Additionally, Hilary offers Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Humanistic Therapy. Her clients come from all walks of life and approach counselling for a variety of reasons. With her services, Hilary aims to help clients face unresolved issues and find meaning and purpose in their lives. As a counsellor, Hilary adheres to the BACP ethical framework which outlines counsellors’ commitment to clients and the ethics they abide by such as values, principles, and personal moral qualities. H. Phillips Counselling remains steadfast in its core values of autonomy, confidentiality, empathy, honesty, and justice. By maintaining these values, Hilary helps clients question their assumptions and reconnect with their authentic selves. Hilary shares, “Every counsellor is unique in their own way, offering different ways of working with the clients they have. I try to be open and encouraging. There is nothing too big or too small to talk about. I try to get the client to see themselves in a more positive light, knowing they may have lost sight of how important they are. Everyone has competitors, and a little competition is healthy. With counselling, it is the client who chooses the therapist with whom they resonate with. By working together, we can build a very fulfilling therapeutic relationship.” In the ever-changing counselling industry, crucial conversations about mental health remain ongoing. Through these conversations, society reduces the stigma around mental health and normalises talking openly about wellbeing. More people are now seeking talking therapies and men are more likely than ever to try counselling. At a time when NHS waiting lists are at an all-time high, clients are reaching out to private counsellors for support. Since the pandemic, counsellors have had to adapt their services with virtual therapy solutions. Although H. Phillips Counselling is based in Northern Ireland, Hilary’s services are accessible to clients across the UK online or by telephone.
