About Alison
Alison Simone is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has nine years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, addictions, sleep and eating problems, and anger. Alison also supports those dealing with parenting pressures, trauma and abuse, and major life changes.
Her approach brings together several therapies so sessions match what each person needs. She uses client-centred talking therapy to keep conversations focused on the person’s experience. Cognitive behavioural ideas help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours.
Alison also draws on existential and narrative approaches to look at meaning, choices, and personal stories that keep people stuck. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with stress, grounding, and reducing reactivity. She describes therapy as collaborative - you and she work out what helps most.
She has experience with issues linked to attachment, abandonment, communication problems, codependency and caregiver stress. Alison names substance misuse, domestic violence, divorce and separation, dissociation and cancer-related issues among her additional focus areas.
Her practice uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, prospective clients follow an online matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.
How Alison’s approaches translate to online counselling
Alison draws on client-centred therapy to focus conversation on the person’s concerns, listening and reflecting so people can clarify what matters to them. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers practical tools online to spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments that can be reviewed in the next session. Existential therapy helps people explore meaning, choice and responsibility when facing life changes or difficult decisions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alison aims to agree a plan collaboratively, matching techniques to a client’s goals and preferences. She checks in and adjusts methods as sessions unfold so the support stays relevant to the issues presented.
The original biography does not specify which online formats are used, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into daily life - they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during busy weeks, or let someone attend when their schedule moves. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use these benefits to keep therapy practical and manageable.
