Simon is an absolute godsend of a therapist. He immediately identified my thinking patterns, and brought ideas to the table which I would never have come across myself, regardless of how much internet digging I do on the side.
He asks the right questions without feeling intrusive. Several lightbulb moments, even within the first few calls.
A real professional. Extremely well versed in addiction issues, anxiety disorders, and helped me to view problems through the lens of ADHD without making it feel like a handicap.

Simon is undoubtedly the best in both sides of therapy, he is someone to talk to and he is always sympathetic to your situation, but is absolutely great at saying the truth thay needs to be said, has helped me through my specific bigger issues and made me realise the smaller issues that could build up. I highly recommend him to anyone who would like some help with their day to day.

Simon is a great therapist! I cannot recommend Simon enough! From the moment I started working with him, I felt truly heard and understood. His incredible listening skills make each session feel like a safe space where I can express myself openly without any judgment. He takes the time to really listen to what I’m saying, and his advice is always thoughtful, insightful, and tailored to my specific situation.
What stands out the most is his patience. Whether I'm working through tough emotions or struggling to make sense of things, Simon never rushes the process. He offers guidance that is gentle yet effective, allowing me to move forward at my own pace while also feeling supported every step of the way.
Thanks to his expertise and compassionate approach, I’ve made tremendous progress in areas I never thought I could. If you're looking for a therapist who is truly dedicated to helping you grow and heal, Simon is absolutely the person to turn to.

I've worked with Simon for a number of months and our find our sessions together chance to be able to reflect on important themes my life. He is support and understanding, while at time being able to challenge my ways of thinking.
