About Simone

Simone Ellington is a UK-based counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties and low mood. She lists experience with motivation, self-esteem and concentration problems. Simone also works with people managing ADHD, autism spectrum conditions and other neurodevelopmental differences in a neurodiversity-affirming way.

She often works with people who have spent years masking or adapting to fit expectations. That can lead to burnout, overwhelm or feeling disconnected from oneself.

Background and approach

Simone helps clients make sense of a late diagnosis and reframe past experiences without self-blame. Her sessions focus on understanding patterns of thinking and reducing distress. She does not aim to change who someone is.

Instead, she supports people to unlearn unhelpful narratives and build practical strategies that honour their needs and energy levels. Simone tailors each session to the individual’s background and goals. She draws on a range of approaches to suit different concerns rather than a single method.

Sessions are shaped around what the client finds most useful in day-to-day life. She aims to offer a respectful, non-judgemental space where people can be themselves. Simone intends to make starting therapy as straightforward as possible for those who have felt misunderstood or pressured to mask in the past.

Online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for low mood, anxiety and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing thinking and behaviour patterns that maintain distress. It can help with sleep problems, anxiety and everyday coping. Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre of work and relies on empathic listening to build change from within.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Simone works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's needs, goals and preferences. She adapts the mix of ACT, CBT and client-centred work as sessions progress and as priorities shift.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when more connection is helpful. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a short break from work. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing reflection and people who prefer not to use video. These options make it easier to fit therapy around daily life and energy levels.
