Individual
Counselling
If you have been considering counselling for yourself to see you through a period of difficulty, I offer a confidential space in which you can safely express your thoughts and feelings without fear of criticism or judgement.

Relationship
Counselling
Far from a self-indulgence, undergoing couple therapy is one of the most generous things we could ever do for ourselves and one another.

Young People
Counselling
Transitioning into adolescence is never easy and is often fraught with difficulties trying to understand the intricate nature of your emotions, your relationships and perhaps even life itself. Counselling can help.

Supervision
I bring a broad range of experience from my work with adolescents and their complex issues to my work with adults with mild to moderate mental ill health providing you with a safe and non-judgmental space to develop professionally as a counsellor.
My Approach
I am an experienced Person Centred Counsellor using an Existential approach to my work. These philosophies share a belief that people have the capacity for self-awareness and choice and have an inherent capacity for responsible self-direction.
This perspective targets present conscious processes rather than unconscious processes and past causes. The therapeutic relationship serves as a context in which the process of psychological growth is fostered.
Psychological growth is achieved through genuine and authentic psychological contact offering warm unconditional acceptance and trusts that the client's inner drive is to actualise in a healthy direction.

About me

​
I trained as a Counsellor and Person Centred Supervisor at the Metanoia Institute in Ealing, which is recognised internationally as a place of teaching and learning excellence.
Getting Help
Talking to a trained person on your own about your problems however big or small – they are people who really listen to you to help you work through and explore your personal thoughts, feelings and experiences. You will not be pressured to talk about anything you do not wish to discuss. Counselling needs to be a voluntary relationship, which means you have a choice in whether you feel you want it or need it.

Anger Management
"I highly recommend counselling if you feel stuck. I made some big life decisions that were not easy to make. Counselling helped me work through my thoughts and I feel happier for it".
BW & SJ (Couples)
"We both needed a space to talk about difficult feelings and learn how to communicate better. Simone was able to hear both of us without taking sides. The whole counselling experience was surprisingly useful and worth it".
JS (Supervisee)
“Simone has been my supervisor for four years. Supervision has developed my practice. I like how she is gently challenging and I enjoy my time with her.
