About Simon
Simon Fox is an NCPS-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with ten years’ experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger and relationship or family concerns, among other issues. Simon draws on his own experience of having been in therapy to inform how he supports others.
He uses a person-centred approach that treats the client as the expert on their life. That means he offers listening, reflection and practical prompts to help people arrive at their own answers. He also mixes in psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused thinking to look at patterns and set achievable short-term goals.
Sessions are conversational and paced to each person. Simon aims to help people talk through difficult feelings, notice recurring thoughts and try small changes between sessions. He describes therapy as a place to look at what led to current problems and to practise different ways of responding to them.
Common topics he addresses include anger and how it shows up at home or work, grief, addiction and trauma-related difficulties. He also supports people with self-esteem, parenting strain, career stress and issues linked to attachment or abandonment.
Simon tends to work in straightforward, down-to-earth language. He encourages people to try techniques such as short goal-setting, noticing patterns from the past, and practical exercises to reduce reactivity. If he is not the right fit, he advises finding someone who better matches personal preferences.
How Simon’s approaches work in online sessions
Simon uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and reflection, helping people bring clarity to their feelings and choices. This approach suits people who want a calm, conversational way to work through anger, stress or relationship concerns.He also draws on solution-focused work, which concentrates on small, practical changes and short-term goals. That can be useful when someone wants tools to reduce reactivity or try different responses in everyday situations. Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at recurring patterns and how past experiences shape current reactions, which can help when anger links to attachment or abandonment issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will help clients compare options and agree on what to try first, based on their needs and preferences. The process is collaborative and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.
