About Phatcharee

Phatcharee (Patch) Welling brings a person-centred approach to therapy. She uses a mix of Attachment-Based work, Client-Centred methods and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside other approaches to help people navigate midlife challenges and everyday struggles. Patch aims to meet people with empathy and respect so they can talk through what matters most to them.

Patch has seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship troubles and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also works with issues such as grief, addiction, sleep and eating difficulties, and career concerns.

Her style focuses on the whole person - body, feelings, mind and spirit - rather than only on symptoms. Sessions are shaped by what each person brings, and she adapts the dialogue and session plan to individual needs. She aims to share practical tools for emotional endurance and coping strategies.

Patch emphasises the therapeutic relationship as the heart of the work. She offers a calm presence, sensitivity and compassion while helping people explore attachment, communication and patterns that keep them stuck. Her approach includes practical exercises and discussion so people can try different ways of responding to life’s pressures.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and she acknowledges that courage. Patch encourages a gradual, collaborative process so people can build resilience and move toward the changes they want.

How attachment and practical therapy work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on close relationships and how early bonds shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions using this approach often help people notice patterns in relationships and practise new ways of connecting or responding.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the person’s pace, helping them to find their own solutions and build self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together choose methods that match the person’s needs. That collaboration helps shape whether more reflective, relational work or practical skills-based work is emphasised.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as joining a session during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed and give the option to use camera-off conversations if that feels better. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered.
