About Simon
Simon Caufield helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem. He supports those dealing with depression, trauma and relationship strain. He also works with men who want to focus on wellbeing and midlife concerns.
Simon uses a warm, client-centred style. He aims to build trust and keep conversations practical. Sessions are interactive so people can talk through what matters now and try ways of coping that fit their life.
Simon holds a Bachelor of Science (honours) degree in counselling and has four years of professional experience. He is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and an accredited member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, NCPS.
His approach is integrative. He draws on person-centred work to prioritise the client’s concerns, psychodynamic ideas to look at repeating patterns, and trauma-focused methods when past events keep causing distress. He also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help with practical changes.
People come to him for many reasons including bereavement, cancer or life-limiting illness, caregiver stress, body image, loneliness, career difficulties and feelings of emptiness or guilt. He welcomes international clients and holds professional registration in the United Kingdom.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. Simon aims to create a calm space where people can explore problems and try manageable steps towards feeling better.
How Simon's approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred work focuses on building a supportive, listening relationship so the client can bring what matters most. This approach helps with stress, low mood and life transitions by prioritising the person's own priorities and pace.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, uses practical exercises and thought-tracking to change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and social fears where people want clear steps to try between sessions.
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and reducing the impact of past traumatic events. It aims to help people manage intense memories and regain a sense of control over daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then agree a way forward together. That collaborative process allows methods to be adapted as needs change.
The profile does not specify which online or in-person formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions useful because they can fit a conversation into a lunch break, avoid travel time or choose a quieter setting. Others use shorter check-ins or paced homework between meetings to keep progress moving while balancing day-to-day commitments.
