Simon Fox, NCPS

Simon Fox is a UK-based therapist with a clear commitment to supporting emotional wellbeing and personal growth. He approaches each person with warmth, thoughtfulness, and steady presence, offering a therapeutic space where individuals can explore the thoughts and feelings that brought them to seek help. His practice emphasizes respect for the client - Simon believes people are the experts on their own lives and works to guide them toward their own answers at a comfortable pace.

Simon uses a person-centred model as the foundation of his work and complements this with elements from cognitive-behavioural techniques, solution-focused strategies, and mindfulness practices to provide practical tools and new perspectives during the therapy journey. He also draws on his own experience of having been in therapy for three years on and off, which informs his understanding of the emotions and apprehensions people often face when starting therapy.

Holding the NCPS professional credential, Simon has built a practice that values compassion, consistency, and collaboration. He supports people addressing a wide range of concerns and encourages anyone considering therapy to take that first step toward change, while acknowledging that finding the right therapist can be part of the process.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Simon primarily practices client-centred therapy, which focuses on building a respectful, non-directive relationship that honours the client as the expert on their own life - this approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to explore feelings, identity, and self-esteem. Solution-focused therapy is also part of his work and concentrates on identifying practical steps and strengths to create change quickly - it is useful for clients seeking clear goals and strategies for coping with stress, relationships, or life transitions. Simon also integrates trauma-focused perspectives when past experiences of harm or abuse are central - this involves careful, gradual work to process distressing events and reduce their ongoing impact.

Finding the right approach is collaborative - Simon works with clients to choose and adapt methods based on individual needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the pace and focus as therapy progresses. He aims to make the process understandable and personally meaningful.

Online therapy with Simon is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit work, family, and geographical constraints. These options make it easier to access regular support, maintain continuity of care across locations, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each person.
