Simon Davies , BACP

Simon Davies is a UK-based counselling practitioner with a Master’s degree in Counseling and three years of professional experience supporting people through major life challenges. He has worked with individuals facing bereavement, trauma, low self-esteem, and the long-term effects of past experiences, bringing a calm and compassionate presence to each session.

Warm and personable in his manner, Simon aims to build an open, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace. He has delivered care in both online and in-person settings and has experience across non-profit organisations, private practice, and prison services - roles that have deepened his commitment to meeting people where they are.

Simon practices in a client-led, integrative way, tailoring therapy to the needs of each person. He draws on client-centered methods, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and trauma-focused approaches to create a personalised plan that fits the client’s goals and preferences. He is a member of BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which is a UK professional association for counsellors and psychotherapists. Simon encourages the view that clients hold expertise in their own lives and that therapy can help unlock strengths for change and healing.

Client-centered and trauma-informed online therapy

Simon Davies uses approaches that prioritize the client’s perspective and practical coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and supporting the client to identify their own strengths and solutions - it suits people working on self-esteem, life changes, and relationship challenges.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical techniques to manage anxiety, stress, low mood, and workplace difficulties. Trauma-Focused Therapy offers structured ways to process traumatic experiences and reduce ongoing distress for those affected by abuse, accidents, or first responder exposure.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Simon Davies works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals and therapists through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or mobility needs, and they allow Simon to support clients in different locations, including international clients.
