Phatcharee (Patch) Welling

Phatcharee (Patch) Welling is a counsellor with seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She uses a person-focused style that seeks to understand each client as a whole person. Patch aims to build a respectful and compassionate relationship to support change and growth.

She commonly helps with stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, motivation and confidence. She also supports people facing grief, addiction concerns, sleep and eating issues, parenting strain, work-related stress, bipolar and depression symptoms, and ADHD-related challenges. Narcissism is listed among her focus areas.

Patch describes a holistic way of working that includes thoughts, feelings, the body and a person’s sense of meaning. Her sessions are tailored to the individual rather than only targeting a diagnosis. She emphasises practical tools that build emotional endurance and coping skills.

Her approach draws on attachment-based work, client-centred methods and cognitive behavioural therapy, with elements of existential thinking and hypnotherapy where appropriate. She aims to match techniques to what each person needs and prefers.

Patch values a warm, empathic presence in the room and says that forming a strong therapeutic relationship is central to progress. She encourages people to take the first step and offers guidance and resources to help them manage challenges and grow.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current bonds. It helps people understand attachment styles, rebuild trust, and improve connection in close relationships. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of the work, offering empathetic listening and support so people can find their own solutions and build self-worth. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns and manage symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Patch will work collaboratively to identify which methods match a person’s needs, goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the plan fits what is actually helping.

Please confirm available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or enabling sessions when mobility or location make in-person meetings difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can work effectively at a distance using these approaches, and many people find the practical convenience helps them keep a regular rhythm of appointments and apply skills between sessions.
