Philippa Williams is a Psychologist, Registered Consultant Psychotherapist, Naturopath, Clinical Supervisor, and published author with a specialist focus on trauma recovery, nervous system regulation, and nature-based therapeutic practice. Her integrative approach weaves together psychological depth, body-based modalities, and naturopathic care to support emotional and physiological wellbeing in both humans and animals.
Philippa is a recognised specialist in equine-facilitated psychotherapy, with over a decade of experience delivering evidence-based, ethically grounded interventions and programs incorporating horses, dogs, and the natural world to public (NHS/government), charity, and private sectors internationally. She also provides clinical supervision and accredited CPD to practitioners and has contributed to peer-reviewed publications on equine-facilitated trauma recovery, somatic and environmental approaches to psychotherapy, and the reimagining of depression through evolutionary and physiological frameworks.
Philippawilliams.co.uk is both a personal and professional amalgamation of the works, experience and passion Philippa has for working with people and animals therapeutically and professionally. Read more about Philippa's background in Naturopathy for horses and dogs here and people here.
Working Together
Philippa offers evidence-based, trauma-informed support for individuals, animals, and professionals—through one-to-one sessions, retreats, consultations, and educational programmes. Services are available both online and in person, and draw on an integrative blend of psychological, naturopathic, somatic, and nature- or animal-assisted approaches.
She works with people seeking emotional and physical healing, as well as those seeking holistic care for their dogs or horses. Philippa also provides professional supervision, training, and consultancy for psychotherapists, psychologists, and organisations—supporting trauma-responsive frameworks, somatic and nature-based integration, and reflective practice in complex or multidisciplinary settings. These are available as one-off consultations or part of ongoing supervision and CPD pathways.
