About Simone Ellington

Simone Ellington, NCPS, is a UK-credentialed counsellor who supports people experiencing stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties, low mood, motivation challenges, low self-esteem, and problems with concentration and memory. She holds NCPS, a counselling credential, and works in a neurodiversity-affirming way with individuals who have ADHD, autism spectrum conditions, dyslexia, and other learning and neurodevelopmental differences.

She has developed particular experience supporting people who have spent much of their lives masking or adapting to meet external expectations and who may now be facing burnout, overwhelm, or a growing sense of disconnection from themselves. She also assists those who are exploring or adjusting to a later-in-life diagnosis, helping them reframe past experiences with compassion rather than self-blame.

Her approach is not about fixing or changing who someone is. Instead she focuses on understanding how a person's mind works, reducing distress, unlearning unhelpful narratives, and co-creating strategies that honour individual needs, strengths, and energy levels. Each session and treatment plan is tailored to a client's unique experiences and goals.

Starting therapy can take courage, particularly for people who have previously felt misunderstood, dismissed, or pressured to mask. Simone aims to provide a respectful, non-judgmental space where people can show up as themselves and feel genuinely understood.
