Anjali Simons
Calm, practical support for life’s hardest moments
About Anjali
Anjali Simons is a UK-based counsellor with seven years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. She works with people facing family conflict, low self-esteem, depression and trauma, and offers help with issues such as parenting, grief and career changes. Anjali speaks English and Twi and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Anjali’s style is warm and respectful. She adapts conversations to each person’s needs and helps clients set clear, realistic goals.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to be practical and down to earth - talking through problems, spotting patterns, and trying small changes between meetings. Her focus includes intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, and the emotional impact of abandonment or attachment problems. She also supports people dealing with codependency, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, and the aftermath of domestic violence.
Anjali draws on client-centred work to follow the person’s lead and build trust. She uses mindfulness to help calm the body and notice unhelpful thoughts. Psychodynamic ideas help uncover old patterns that keep repeating and get in the way of change.
People come to Anjali for short-term coaching or longer therapeutic work. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different routines. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions to suit their availability.

Approaches that guide online counselling
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. The therapist offers empathy and reflection to help clients understand their feelings and decide on next steps; this approach suits people who want a compassionate space to make their own choices.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple ways to notice the body and thoughts without judgement. It can help with stress, anxiety, sleep problems and managing intense feelings by building small daily practices.
Psychodynamic work looks at repeated patterns and early experiences that shape current reactions. It helps when someone wants to understand why they keep getting stuck in the same relationship or behaviour loops.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. That may mean trying something brief and practical or exploring deeper patterns over time.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let conversations feel more like face-to-face meetings, phone sessions can suit lower bandwidth or days without video, and live chat or text messaging work well for short check-ins and on-the-go reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and busy lives while keeping the focus on progress and consistency.
