About Simone
Simone Simonetti is a counsellor who offers online therapy to help people manage anxiety, stress and relationship difficulties. He works in English, Spanish and Italian and practises from the United Kingdom. Simone holds BACP registration and brings three years of professional experience to his work.
He creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through worries and everyday struggles. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. Simone aims to help people feel more confident, resilient and connected in their lives.
Background and approach
Simone believes the relationship between counsellor and client is the key to change. He looks for patterns that link past experiences with present feelings and behaviours. That understanding then guides practical steps and new ways of responding to stress and anxiety.
He draws on several approaches to suit different needs, including attachment-focused work, cognitive behavioural ideas and client-centred listening. Simone also uses mindfulness and existential perspectives when they fit a person's situation. He adapts how he works so sessions focus on what matters most to the individual.
People come to Simone for a range of concerns beyond anxiety - depression, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, eating and body image problems, caregiver stress and family of origin difficulties. He also supports those coping with chronic illness or pain and people dealing with separation or blended family challenges. The approach is practical, gentle and tailored to each person's goals.
How Simone's approaches work online
Attachment-based work helps identify how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions, and it can be useful for people struggling with closeness, trust and relationship patterns. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the person's pace, which helps people feel heard and more able to reflect on difficult topics. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical strategies for reducing anxiety and changing unhelpful patterns.Finding the best approach is part of the therapy process. Simone will work together with each person to choose and adapt methods based on their needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative process means approaches can shift as progress is made or new priorities emerge.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lives and schedules. Video is useful for a more face-to-face experience, phone calls are often easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging formats can be used for shorter check-ins or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it simpler to keep regular appointments alongside work, family and other commitments.
