About Simon Davies

Simon Davies is a UK-based counselling practitioner who combines professional training with a warm, approachable manner to support people through significant life challenges. He holds a Master’s degree in Counseling and the BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), and he brings three years of professional experience to his practice.

Simon has worked with people facing bereavement and trauma, those rebuilding self-esteem and confidence, and individuals exploring how earlier life experiences continue to shape their present. He works from the belief that each person knows their story best and already carries strengths that can be drawn on during change and recovery.

Known for a personable and non-judgmental style, Simon aims to create an open space where clients feel able to speak honestly about their thoughts and feelings. His experience spans online and in-person settings and includes roles with non-profit organisations, private practice, and prisons, each contributing to his understanding of diverse needs and backgrounds.

His approach is client-led and integrative, tailoring the work to individual priorities. He draws on person-centered, psychodynamic, trauma-informed, and cognitive-behavioural methods to craft a plan that fits each client’s goals. Simon welcomes the first step toward therapy as a meaningful act of self-care and looks forward to supporting clients as they move toward greater wellbeing and fulfilment.

Therapeutic approaches and online care



Simon uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, non-directive space where the client’s perspective leads the work - this approach is helpful for building self-esteem, exploring values, and making sense of life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns; it often helps with anxiety, low mood, and practical coping strategies. Trauma-focused therapy offers targeted support for people recovering from traumatic events by addressing how those experiences affect thoughts, feelings, and everyday functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Simon collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts methods so they fit the client rather than imposing a single model.

Online work offers practical flexibility - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access support from different locations. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent, regular care while accommodating varied schedules and communication styles.
