About Simon

Simon Langtry is a counsellor who uses a client-centred way of working. He emphasises listening and responding to each person's experience. He encourages people to build on their own strengths while addressing stress, anxiety, anger and low mood. Simon holds NCPS and brings 14 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

He approaches conversations simply and directly. Sessions focus on what matters now and on practical steps people can try between meetings. He draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to look at thoughts and patterns that keep problems going. Solution-focused techniques are used to set small, achievable goals and notice what changes are working.

Simon has worked with common concerns such as relationship strain, parenting pressures and career stress. He also supports people facing issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, chronic illness and substance problems. His practice includes responding to difficult life events such as divorce, separation and domestic violence.

Work with Simon typically involves identifying one or two clear goals, trying short exercises in session, and reviewing progress together. The emphasis is on respectful listening and straightforward steps that can be used day to day. People come away with practical ways to manage emotions and communicate more clearly.

To begin, he asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions based on schedule. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people feel heard so they can notice their own strengths and choices. This helps when someone wants support to talk through stress, relationship strain or parenting frustrations.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It uses practical exercises and simple experiments to test unhelpful thinking and try new ways of coping with anxiety, low mood or anger.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, doable steps and on what is already working. It is useful for people who want short-term direction and quick, concrete changes in day-to-day life.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals and preferences, and they will adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.

Session delivery details are not specified in the biography, so confirm the available formats before booking. Many people find online work helps fit sessions around work and family life, reduces travel time, and makes it easier to keep regular appointments. Others prefer shorter check-ins or camera-free options to suit their needs, and these practical arrangements can be discussed when scheduling.
