About Simon Knott
Before beginning his counselling training in 2001, he spent more than twenty years working in Human Resources for US companies, where he dealt with many life-event issues affecting employees. That background informs his practical understanding of workplace and personal transitions.
He trained at The Gestalt Centre in London and works from a Gestalt-influenced perspective that emphasises awareness of the whole person - mental, emotional, physical and spiritual - to help identify areas that may benefit from change. He also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques when appropriate to address specific thoughts and behaviours.
Simon aims to offer a warm, flexible approach that clients find ultimately rewarding, combining experiential awareness with targeted therapeutic tools.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit for You?
Many people ask whether online therapy can truly help. For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.One key advantage is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a therapist in the way that works best for them: via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or access support from different locations.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals and therapists, and if someone feels a different match would be better they can switch to another practitioner. Online therapy can be a practical and effective route to getting consistent support without needing to travel to an office.
