Philip Bloomer, LCSW, LICSW

Philip Bloomer is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LCSW, LICSW) who has practiced in Kentucky, Ohio, and West Virginia. He provides therapy for people of all ages facing mental health and substance use difficulties, whether those concerns occur alone or together, and he also works with couples and families to address relationship challenges and family dynamics.

As a social worker he considers the whole of a person’s life - where someone lives, their physical wellness, relationships, thinking patterns, past experiences, emotions, and what gives life meaning - and brings that broader perspective into treatment. Everything discussed in sessions is treated as strictly personal, and clients can expect a nonjudgmental, honest approach focused on practical steps for change.

He uses a range of therapeutic styles to help people manage problems, clarify what matters to them, identify goals, and take realistic steps toward those hopes and dreams. Philip believes strongly in the potential for positive change and tailors his work to each individual or family he meets.

Born and raised in England, he spent the first three decades of his life there and began his first career working for the British government. He returned to school later and earned a Master’s degree in Social Work at age 40. In addition to academic training, he draws on a wide range of life experience, including his own personal struggles with mental health and substance use. He currently offers standard office-hour appointments Monday through Friday, 8:15 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time, and uses the initial visit to gather information that helps shape an effective plan of care. Philip looks forward to hearing life stories and helping clients write the next chapter.
