Anthony Simpson, BACP

Anthony Simpson offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or life changes. He writes simply and listens carefully to help people talk through what matters to them. Anthony aims to make the first step feel manageable and respectful of each person’s pace.

Anthony is a counsellor with three years of professional experience and holds BACP registration. He works with common concerns such as grief, depression, low self-esteem and coping with change. He also focuses on issues like panic, social anxiety, attachment and feelings of isolation.

In sessions he follows a client-centred approach. That means conversations start with the person’s own goals and experiences rather than a fixed set of techniques. He also uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, which helps people recognise unhelpful thought patterns and try different ways of responding.

People can expect straightforward language and a steady pace. Anthony encourages practical steps alongside reflection, such as small experiments to test new ways of thinking or behaving. He aims to support people as they regain confidence and build coping skills.

Anthony accepts international clients and offers work online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. The process begins with a short questionnaire to match needs, then scheduling follows. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Anthony’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on what matters to the person. The therapist listens and follows the client’s lead to build understanding and trust. This approach helps when someone needs a space to make sense of feelings like grief, loss or low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It includes practical steps such as trying small experiments or practising different reactions to reduce anxiety and panic. CBT can be useful for stress, social anxiety and mood difficulties.

Finding the right approach is usually collaborative. Anthony will discuss your goals and try methods that fit your situation and preferences. Together you can adjust the focus as progress is made and priorities change.

Online sessions offer flexibility and easier access. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation when bandwidth allows. Phone sessions are useful if you prefer not to be on camera or need a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit quick updates, ongoing reflections or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help fit therapy around work, family life and different time zones.
