Simonetta Wyatt
About my practice
I am an integrative counsellor and draw on a wide range of counselling approaches to achieve results, including humanistic, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). I work empathically with my clients in the belief that, with the right help, each person can fulfil their potential and achieve their goals.
Having myself sought therapeutic help to guide me through the difficult stages in my life, I have experienced the benefits counselling offers first-hand. The transformative power of therapy enhanced my own resilience and increased my self-awareness, and the work I have done on myself, with the support of my therapists, has enabled me to feel happier and fulfilled. I want to help others benefit from therapy as much as I have done.
My main areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, self-harm, relationship issues, loss, and interpersonal trauma - including sexual, emotional and physical abuse, and neglect.
I offer long and short-term counselling in English, Italian and French.
My philosophy
Each and every one of us will at some point in our lives face difficulties and challenges that we find hard to deal with – be that experiencing periods of feeling ‘stuck’, anxious, depressed, low or angry; experiencing conflicts in our relationships with others or suffering a loss; or being impacted by past events which still affect how we cope with life today.
I can work with you to help you identify, face, and overcome those feelings and issues that you may be struggling to navigate on your own, in a safe and collaborative environment.
In the words of Irvin D. Yalom, a therapist helps a client “by being lovingly present with that person; by being trustworthy, interested; and by believing that their joint activity will ultimately be redemptive and healing”.
The real therapeutic force is the relationship between the client and the therapist. This is a sentiment that has always been echoed by the clients I have worked with.

You are welcome to book a free, introductory half-hour session, during which we will discuss your reasons for getting in touch, best approach, and our mutual availability.
Depending on your preference, sessions will be conducted either in-person, over the phone or via Zoom.
Fees
My fees are £70 per 50-minute session. Concessionary prices are available.
