Services Offered

At Avon CBT & Psychotherapy, we offer several therapeutic services tailored to meet the needs of each client. Simon’s approach is empathetic and focused on helping clients achieve emotional and mental well-being.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps individuals change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. It is highly effective for those dealing with:

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Stress

• Phobias

• Low self-esteem

• OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)

Through CBT, Simon teaches clients how to identify and challenge negative thoughts, replacing them with more positive, realistic ones. This process enables individuals to feel more in control of their emotions and responses.

Couples Counselling

Relationships can face numerous challenges, and therapy can provide the tools needed to overcome them. Simon works with couples to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and rebuild emotional connections. His approach is aimed at fostering understanding and respect within relationships, helping partners grow together.

ADHD Therapy & Coaching

ADHD affects people in different ways. Simon offers therapy and coaching for both individuals and couples dealing with ADHD. This service focuses on improving organisation, time management, and communication skills while addressing the emotional impacts of ADHD, such as frustration and anxiety. Simon tailors his support to help clients manage ADHD in both their personal and professional lives.

Walk and Talk Counselling

For those who prefer a more active approach to therapy, Walk and Talk Counselling offers the opportunity to engage in therapy while walking outdoors. This unique format combines the benefits of physical activity with therapeutic conversation, making it easier for some clients to relax and open up during sessions.

Online and Face-to-Face Sessions

We understand that life can be busy. That’s why we offer flexible therapy options, both face-to-face and online. Whether you prefer meeting indoors or outdoors or need online sessions, Simon ensures that you receive the same level of support and confidentiality. Online therapy is convenient for clients outside the Bristol and North Somerset area.
