About Simon
Simon Caufield helps people facing grief, anxiety, stress and low self-esteem. He also supports those dealing with depression, trauma and relationship and parenting worries. People contact him about career strain, compassion fatigue, life changes and issues around intimacy and body image.
He works in a direct, warm and interactive way. Sessions are client-centred, which means the person sets the pace and topics. He aims to build trust so people can talk honestly about hard things.
Background and approach
Simon trained with a BSc (hons) in counselling, specialising in trauma and bereavement and loss. He is a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society - NCPS. He has four years of professional experience working with a broad range of concerns.
His practice draws on several approaches. He uses client-centred methods to follow the person’s lead, psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns, and trauma-focused techniques where past hurts affect daily life. He also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to help people test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours.
Sessions are offered online to people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Simon works in English and aims to match his way of working to each person’s needs. He asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire and then arranges sessions around availability.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses simple, practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours, which can help with anxiety, mood and social fears.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adapted as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls are useful for more in-depth conversations, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit shorter check-ins and messaging lets people write between sessions. These options offer flexibility for different schedules, locations and communication preferences.
