About Simone
Simone Simonetti is a BACP-registered counsellor with three years of clinical experience based in the United Kingdom. He works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and LGBT-related issues. Sessions are offered in English, Spanish and Italian.
Simone uses an integrative approach that draws on attachment work, client-centred methods, cognitive behavioural techniques, existential thinking and mindfulness. He focuses on what is happening for a person now while also noticing patterns that come from earlier relationships. The aim is to make those patterns clearer and more manageable in daily life.
In practice sessions are conversational and focused on concrete steps. Simone listens to what matters most and helps people try out small changes between meetings. He uses CBT-style strategies when unhelpful thoughts or behaviours are getting in the way, and attachment ideas to look at how close relationships affect feelings and choices.
He also brings mindfulness and existential reflections to help people tolerate uncertainty, find clearer priorities and notice what gives meaning. Work may include practical coping tools, reflective exercises and gentle experiments to test new ways of relating.
Simone asks clients to think about what they want from counselling and to set simple, realistic goals. To begin, prospective clients are invited to use the site's matching process and schedule an initial session to see how the approach fits their needs.
How his approaches translate to online counselling
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can be used to notice how closeness and distance show up in thoughts and interactions, which helps when working on relationship difficulties and attachment issues.Client-centred therapy puts the person's experience at the centre. In remote sessions this means the counsellor listens and reflects, helping the client find clarity about feelings, values and next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy targets specific thoughts and behaviours with practical exercises and simple experiments to try between meetings.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Simone will discuss which methods match the client's goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as work progresses. The focus is on what is useful and manageable for the individual.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online working can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose sessions that suit quieter surroundings or a lower-bandwidth connection without needing to be on camera.
