I am a 21 year old guy, I had never talked to anyone about anything really before talking to Simon. I found it hard talking to anyone else but it was incredibly easy to talk about everything and anything with him. He helped me immensely, he moved mountains inside my head and I will be forever grateful to him and the techniques that he used. The space to talk was incredibly comfortable as well which I think does help a lot. My issues were due to quite severe anxiety and stress.

Simon is such a warm and empathetic person. It was extremely easy to open up to him and feel his genuine concern and eagerness to help. I am so pleased to have found him and would not hesitate in recommending him. It’s been liberating to know he is always there if I need to call upon him again. Simon, you’re an absolute gem.
