About Simone
Simone Riviere is a counsellor who uses an integrative, relationship-focused approach. She places the client at the centre of sessions and aims to help people untangle difficult emotions. Simone presents a calm, non-judgemental way of working that suits both short-term and longer-term therapy.
She commonly helps people facing stress and anxiety, persistent low mood or depression, and relationship or intimacy-related struggles. Simone also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, and codependency. Practical everyday problems such as sleep difficulties, changes at work, parenting strain and challenges around communication are also within her practice.
Her style blends client-centred work with psychodynamic thinking and Jungian ideas about meaning and pattern. Mindfulness practices are used to help people manage overwhelming feelings. Motivational interviewing helps when someone wants support making changes or setting goals.
Simone has ten years of experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works with people across a broad range of life stages and difficulties, including ADHD, bipolar mood challenges and compassion fatigue. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
In sessions Simone focuses on listening first, then on building practical steps together. People can expect a steady, exploratory pace, with space to reflect and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.
To begin, people are invited to complete the service's matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. The counsellor offers both shorter focused work and open-ended therapy depending on the person’s needs.
Using relational and reflective approaches online
Simone draws on client-centred practice and mindfulness to create a calm, attentive way of working. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own experience and aims to make them feel listened to and respected, which helps with low mood, anxiety and relationship concerns. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple practices to help people notice and tolerate difficult feelings, which can be useful for stress, trauma reactions and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then choose which methods to try together. This collaborative conversation helps shape whether sessions focus on reflective exploration, practical skills, or goal-focused change.
