About me
I am Dr Rebecca Phillips, a Clinical Psychologist based in Hampshire. I offer online and in person therapy in Basingstoke and Winchester. I have worked within the NHS and charities for the past 10 years with younger people through to older adults.
I currently work in an NHS community setting with adults experiencing severe and enduring mental health problems. I have provided psychological therapies in various settings, including crisis services and hospitals. I have experience in working with a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, low mood, self-criticism, low self-esteem, stress and symptoms of trauma.
I work collaboratively with people to understand their difficulties, make sense of their problems, and find a way forward. I tailor support to help people to meet their therapy goals and discover new ways of coping with their difficulties. I am passionate about supporting clients to build a life that is meaningful and worth living, what this involves is always different from one person to another and I adapt my sessions to each person’s individual needs.
I have experience of using a variety of evidence-based psychological therapies. The approaches I draw on most often are Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR).
I am registered with HCPC and BABCP.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The BABCP is the lead organisation for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in the UK. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in the practice, theory or development of CBT. BABCP also provides accreditation for CBT therapists. BABCP accredited members adhere to the Standards of Conduct, Performance and Ethics in the Practice of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies, and are willing to be scrutinised in this adherence as required.
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Additional information
Before you decide to start therapy sessions with me, I offer a free and brief consultation so we can learn about each other and see if I am able to support you with your needs. Therapy is an important investment and it's important that we connect well with each other and build a solid therapeutic relationship. If I do not believe I am the best person to help you, I am more than happy to direct you to someone who I think may be able to.
