Simone Heath, BACP

Simone Heath helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. She supports those dealing with trauma, anger, low self‑esteem, intimacy worries and major life changes. Simone presents herself as a flexible counsellor who adapts to each person's needs.

She works in a way that encourages awareness of feelings and patterns. Sessions aim to bring unconscious material into view so people can better understand how they react and relate. Simone emphasises full emotional expression as a path to greater independence and personal development.

Simone uses psychodynamic ideas alongside humanistic and person‑centred principles she has practiced, and also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques when helpful. The first meeting focuses on what the person wants from counselling and on shaping a plan together for short or longer term work.

Sessions run for about 45 minutes. The biography states sessions can be video or voice calls, and the client chooses the best fit during assessment. This helps people pick an approach and pace that suit their circumstances.

With 12 years' experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Simone works in the United Kingdom. She speaks English and does not accept international clients at this time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How psychodynamic ideas work in online therapy

Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape current feelings and relationships. It helps people notice repeated patterns, make links between past and present, and name feelings that may have been hidden.

Person‑centred and humanistic influences focus on the person in front of the counsellor. This means sessions emphasise empathy, listening and supporting the person's own pace for change. Cognitive behavioural techniques may be used at times to help with specific patterns of thinking or unwanted behaviours.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which ideas and techniques suit their goals, needs and preferences. This is shaped during the initial assessment and reviewed as therapy continues.

The biography notes sessions run for about 45 minutes and can be video or voice calls. If you want to know exactly which session types are currently offered, confirm options before booking. Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel, allowing shorter check‑ins and letting people join from different locations when needed.
