About Simone
Counsellor Simone Simonetti is a BACP member with three years' experience offering counselling in the United Kingdom. He works with stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, relationships, trauma and abuse, and depression. Sessions are conducted in English, Spanish and Italian.
Simone uses an integrative approach that draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques, existential thinking and mindfulness. He focuses on what is happening now and how past patterns affect current choices. Conversations aim to make difficult feelings easier to name and manage.
He supports people who want clearer boundaries, better communication, or help after loss and separation. He also works with issues such as body image, codependency, chronic illness, caregiver stress and family of origin problems. Simone pays attention to how identity and culture shape experience.
In sessions he listens, reflects and offers simple tools to try between meetings. That can include breathing or grounding practices, thought records, or ways to spot recurring patterns. He checks in on progress and adjusts the approach as needed.
Simone asks new clients to use the site flow to start: select the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How his approaches shape online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current connections. It helps people notice patterns in how they relate to others and try different ways of responding. Client-centred therapy focuses on being listened to without judgment and on the client's own pace and goals. It is useful for building self-understanding and confidence. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviours with clear practical exercises. It can help with anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will discuss options and agree on a plan based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and may mix methods as progress is reviewed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday or evening, shorten a check-in when time is limited, or avoid travel. It also lets a therapist use written exercises, mindfulness practices and CBT worksheets between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools to suit a person's situation while checking progress each step of the way.
