Simon | In-person/online Person-centred counsellor
Counselling Chorley
Hello, my name's Simon and I'm here to listen.
I'm a person-centred counsellor and a registered member of the BACP. So whether you're grieving for a loved, experiencing loss through a life-changing event or change of circumstances, I can give you the confidential space you need. I offer walk and talk counselling sessions in my local area, which provide person-centred counselling combined with the healing power of nature.
How I work:
As a person-centred counsellor, I offer talking therapy, which is all about helping you find your own answers to your problems through non-judgemental listening.
Sometimes it can be as simple as having someone to talk to who isn’t a close friend or family member; somebody impartial who you don’t need to feel guilty about offloading onto. We spend so much time with our thoughts and worries swimming around in our heads that saying them out loud can be a powerful and cathartic experience. Talking about your worries is an important first step on your journey through your loss.
I offer a free no-obligation 30 minute consultation, where we can talk informally and you can decide if the type of therapy I offer works for you.
More about me:
Coping with multiple bereavements in my family and the impact it has had made me realise how important the need to talk and share problems is. It’s also made me understand that though everyone deals with their problems in different ways, the common thread is always the importance of talking about them.
Online therapy
I offer online sessions via Whatsapp video call. Each session lasts an hour and is protected by end-to-end encription.I conduct these sessions from a private room in my home for the sake of privacy, peace of mind and the confidentiality of our sessions. I always advise that you do the same, so that you can relax, be yourself and get the most out of each session.

Bereavement, loss, anxiety, depression and sadness are my areas of expertese, because they are so often interlinked. Loss isn't neccesarily just about bereavement, but can be linked to the loss of a job, a life-changing circumstance or losing your sense of purpose.Therapies offered
