Psychodynamic counsellor focused on awareness and change
About Simone
Simone Heath helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain and issues linked to trauma and abuse. She also supports people with anger, low self-esteem, intimacy concerns and coping with life changes. Simone works from a psychodynamic perspective and aims to help people understand patterns that keep causing pain.
Simone keeps sessions focused on the person in front of her. She listens for repeated themes such as attachment, unconscious feelings and old relationship patterns.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to bring more awareness so people can make different choices in daily life. Sessions normally run for around 45 minutes and can take place by video or voice call. Simone offers a flexible approach so the length and focus of therapy can be agreed during an initial assessment.
People can choose short-term work or a longer period of talking, depending on their needs. Her style is straightforward and supportive. She encourages full expression and helps people build independence and self-understanding over time.
The emphasis is on exploring feelings and patterns rather than quick fixes. With 12 years' experience, Simone has worked across a range of concerns including loss, bereavement, addiction and trauma. She holds BACP accreditation which is noted as BACP.
Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and she works in English.

Sessions & fees
Psychodynamic work online and practical session options
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how past relationships and hidden feelings shape present behaviour. It helps people uncover repeated patterns, attachment issues and unconscious drivers that contribute to anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties and responses to loss.In sessions the therapist listens for recurring themes and helps bring them into awareness so people can experiment with different ways of relating and responding. This approach suits people who want to understand the roots of their reactions rather than only manage symptoms in the short term. The therapist and client decide together whether shorter focused work or a longer course of sessions feels right, making the plan collaborative and tailored to goals and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need lower bandwidth, live chat allows a typed conversation in the moment, and messaging supports shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caring duties and travel, while still allowing reflective, focused psychodynamic work with registered or accredited professionals.
