Simone Riviere , BACP

Simone Riviere is an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist who recognises how unpredictable and demanding life can be. She understands that people often experience periods of feeling low, anxious or depressed and that those feelings can make it hard to reach out to others or to share what is happening beneath the surface. Simone offers a compassionate, relationship-centred approach that creates space to explore those emotions and begin to untangle unhelpful patterns.

Working collaboratively, she supports clients to find perspective and a greater sense of balance through both short-term focused work and open-ended therapy. Her practice places the therapeutic relationship at the centre, ensuring that each person’s experience is listened to and treated with respect and without judgement. This approach aims to give clients room to breathe, reflect and make changes at a pace that feels right for them.

Simone is accredited by the BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she integrates different therapeutic methods to meet individual needs. Her practice is geared toward helping people navigate life’s challenges with clarity and resilience.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Simone Riviere uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a supportive, non-judgemental environment where the client’s experience is central; this approach helps with issues such as low mood, anxiety and relationship difficulties by prioritising empathy and personal pacing. She also draws on Jungian Therapy, which explores personal narratives and inner symbols to help people understand patterns of meaning and identity that can underlie recurring emotional struggles. Mindfulness Therapy is used to teach present-moment awareness and practical techniques for managing stress and rumination, which can be helpful for anxiety, sleep problems and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process rather than a fixed decision up front. Simone works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the focus as therapy progresses to ensure the work feels relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Simone is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from a licensed professional while fitting therapy into everyday life.
