About Simone

Simone Stephen is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She works in a down-to-earth way to support people who are struggling with confidence, relationships and life changes. Simone holds the NCPS credential and brings eight years of experience to her practice.

She focuses on helping people identify their strengths and build practical steps forward. Simone encourages clients to tell their story at their own pace and to try small experiments between sessions. Conversations aim to be clear and solution-focused, while also making space for difficult emotions.

Her background includes work with a range of everyday concerns such as grief, workplace issues and intimacy-related problems. She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, isolation and questions about life purpose. Money and financial issues are listed among her additional focus areas and she can help people talk through the stress these bring.

Simone works in English and accepts international clients. She frames therapy as a partnership where the client’s goals guide the work. The process typically includes checking what matters most, setting achievable goals and reviewing progress together.

If someone wants to begin, the usual next step is to use the site’s Start Therapy flow, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How evidence-based approaches shape online counselling

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques generally focus on practical, measurable steps that help people feel better and manage problems more effectively. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test them against reality, teaching new ways to respond to anxiety and low mood. Another approach concentrates on identifying values and small actions that bring more meaning and direction, which is useful for life purpose concerns and motivation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what matters to the client, try techniques that suit their goals, and adapt the plan as progress is reviewed. This collaborative process helps match methods to the person rather than offering a single fixed path.

Because the biography does not list session formats, confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed and making it simpler to schedule around work or family commitments. For people wanting support with money and financial issues, stress, or relationship concerns, this way of working can offer regular, practical steps to try between sessions.
