About Simon
Simon Caufield is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with depression, anxiety and grief. He works with people facing stress, trauma, bereavement and life changes. Sessions aim to be warm and interactive so people can talk through what matters to them.
He trained with a Bachelor of Science with honours in counselling, with a focus on trauma and bereavement and loss. He is a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).
Background and approach
Those memberships indicate he works within professional standards set by those organisations. Simon uses a client-centred style that puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. That means he listens closely, reflects back what he hears, and helps people make sense of difficult feelings at their own pace.
He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past that affect current relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques are used where practical to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours. For clients who have experienced trauma, trauma-focused approaches are available to address distress linked to painful events.
He has four years of professional practice supporting a wide range of concerns, including cancer and end-of-life related distress, caregiving strain, body image and issues around intimacy. Simon works with individuals who want a thoughtful, steady approach to managing change and improving everyday wellbeing.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses easy, practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking and try small behavioural experiments. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood and social worry.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and decide together which methods fit the person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process can change over time as needs shift.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to give flexible access. Video calls are useful for a therapy-style conversation; phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is low. Live chat or messaging can help with brief check-ins, written reflection or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to choose what feels most practical for everyday life.
