About Simone
Simone Simonetti is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression and LGBT issues. He speaks English, Spanish and Italian and offers online sessions for people based in the UK.
Simone uses approaches such as Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Existential Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. In practical terms he focuses on identifying repeated patterns, understanding how past relationships shape present feelings, and learning small steps to change day-to-day reactions. Sessions tend to look at what is happening now while also noticing earlier influences.
He helps people who are struggling with attachment issues, avoidant personality traits, body image, codependency, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and family of origin concerns. Simone also works with people facing divorce, separation, eating and food-related issues, emptiness, control problems, communication difficulties and blended family tensions. These topics are approached using conversational reflection and skills work drawn from his listed methods.
Simone aims to be collaborative in sessions, listening to what matters most to the person and adjusting the focus as needed. He pays attention to identity and cultural context when these shape difficulties, and uses straightforward tools from CBT and mindfulness alongside longer-form reflection from attachment and existential ideas.

How his approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape emotional responses. Online sessions can help identify attachment patterns that influence guilt, shame and relationship worries. Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre of conversation and supports clearer self-understanding through reflective listening. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to test unhelpful beliefs and develop new responses.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Simone treats choosing methods as a collaborative process and will discuss which blend of attachment ideas, person-centred listening and CBT techniques fits the goals and preferences of the person. That way the focus can change as progress is made or difficulties shift.
The practical benefit of online sessions is making therapy easier to fit into everyday life, such as arranging appointments around work, caregiving or travel constraints. The biography does not specify session formats here, so confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals use online work to offer regular check-ins, shorter skills-focused sessions or fuller 50-minute conversations depending on what suits the person's schedule and what they want to work on.
