Simon Davies, BACP

Simon Davies is a UK-based counselling practitioner with a Master’s degree in Counseling and three years of professional experience supporting people through significant life events. He has worked with those navigating bereavement and trauma, individuals struggling with self-esteem and confidence, and people trying to understand how earlier experiences continue to affect their present life. He approaches each person with the assumption that they are the expert on their own story and that they already possess strengths that can be used to address current challenges.

Warm and personable in style, he aims to offer an open, non-judgmental space where clients can feel comfortable exploring difficult thoughts and feelings. His background includes both online and in-person practice, with roles in non-profit settings, private practice, and prisons, each contributing to a broader understanding of diverse client needs and life circumstances.

His work is client-led and integrative, adapting methods to fit the individual rather than applying a single model. He draws on person-centered ideas, psychodynamic perspectives, trauma-informed principles, and cognitive-behavioural techniques to tailor therapy to each client’s goals. He also holds the BACP credential, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Recognising that beginning therapy can feel daunting, he frames that step as an act of self-care and respect and looks to support clients as they move toward greater resilience and fulfilment.
