Simon Langtry, NCPS

Simon Langtry is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people sort through emotional challenges. He holds NCPS and brings 14 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He aims to make the first step feel manageable and encouraging for those reaching out.

Simon listens first and follows the person’s pace. He offers time to talk about stress, anxiety and depression. He also helps people address anger, relationship strain, and parenting concerns in straightforward ways.

His work uses practical methods alongside warm listening. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural changes. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for strengths and concrete steps that move a person forward.

Simon has experience with a wide range of issues. These include family and relationship tensions, self‑esteem problems, career stress, and concerns linked to ageing, chronic illness or caregiving strain. He has also worked with people affected by addiction, domestic violence, separation and loss.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Simon helps people set manageable goals and track small changes between meetings. He encourages realistic steps that fit daily life and personal values.

If someone is unsure where to start, Simon offers a calm first conversation to clarify concerns and next steps. He supports people who want a practical, people-focused way to tackle their current problems.

How Simon’s approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s own view of their problems. It helps people feel heard and builds a basis for deciding what to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions; it teaches simple techniques to test negative thoughts and try new behaviours. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on strengths and small steps that move a person toward clear, achievable goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Simon works collaboratively to decide which methods match a person’s needs, goals and preferences. He adjusts the mix of listening, skill-building and short-term goals as work progresses.

The practical advantages of online therapy make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life. Online work can reduce travel time and allow sessions to be scheduled around work or family commitments.
