About Simone

Simone Heath is a counsellor who helps people tackle stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family issues, trauma, depression and grief. She also supports people facing intimacy-related problems, anger, low self-esteem and major life changes. Simone presents a calm, direct style that focuses on listening and helping people find their own way forward.

Simone trained and holds membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She describes her work as flexible and adapts methods to the needs of each person. Sessions aim to build awareness, encourage fuller expression and support growing independence.

Her practice draws on psychodynamic ideas about unconscious patterns and attachment. Simone uses these ideas to help people notice repeated patterns and where they come from. She also brings elements from humanistic and person-centred perspectives to keep the conversation grounded and collaborative.

Sessions typically last about 45 minutes and can be arranged as video or voice calls. During the first assessment, Simone and the client discuss whether short-term or longer-term work fits best, and they shape an approach to match those aims.

People who choose Simone often want a therapist who listens closely, helps them spot repeating behaviours, and supports them to make changes at their own pace. She aims to make room for honest feeling while helping clients gain clearer understanding of what they want next.

How psychodynamic ideas shape online therapy

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at repeated patterns, early attachments and unconscious processes that influence present behaviour. It aims to help people notice those patterns so they can make different choices; this can be useful for relationship and family-related concerns as well as anxiety and grief.

Simone also draws on humanistic and person-centred ways of working which place the client's own experience at the heart of sessions. These approaches focus on empathetic listening and supporting people to express feelings fully, which can help with self-esteem, anger and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Simone treats this as a collaborative process and will help clients decide whether short-term or longer-term therapy is most useful. Together they set goals and adjust methods as needs and preferences become clearer.

Many people find online sessions useful because they fit more easily into busy lives and reduce travel time. Video calls let the therapist and client see facial expression and body language, while voice calls can make sessions simpler when visual connection is not needed. Confirm which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking so arrangements match your routine and practical needs.
