Simon Beswetherick

I appreciate the transformative potential of moments of crisis and view the counselling process as a journey towards deepening the relationship with self, increasing wellbeing and fulfilling more of our potential. I aim to help clients discover a different way of being in the world and live more authentically.

At the heart of the work is the client-therapist relationship. I offer a compassionate presence to your experience so that we can work towards cultivating acceptance and freedom from old, self-limiting beliefs, and create lasting change. As I believe each of us holds an innate wisdom within, my aim is not to provide you with answers but to guide you towards finding your own truth. 

I am a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor and hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychosynthesis Counselling.

My approach is integrative, incorporating conventional psychotherapeutic techniques in addition to mindfulness and somatic practices, honouring the body as a fertile source of information, self-connection and healing.

I offer sessions both online and in person at my home-based practice in Blackheath, London.

As well as English, my native language, I have a solid understanding of the Portuguese, Spanish and French languages.

I work with clients aged 18 and over.

We would typically start by having an initial free chat of 10 to 15 minutes on Zoom or over the phone to discuss your needs. This will give us an idea of whether we will be a good fit to work together and whether the support I offer could be beneficial for you.

After that brief chat, we will agree a time for our initial session, which can take place either in person or online. This session is an opportunity for us to start to get to know each other in a little more depth. Following this initial session we will decide whether to continue working together.
