Anthony Simpson, BACP

Anthony Simpson is a UK-credentialed therapist with three years of professional experience and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which recognises professional training and practice standards. He supports people working through stress and anxiety, grief and loss, low motivation, self-esteem difficulties, confidence challenges, and depression.

Anthony frames therapy around the belief that each person is the expert of their own story and already carries strengths that can be used to overcome current struggles. He encourages clients to view seeking help as a courageous step toward greater wellbeing and a more satisfying life.

In his practice he aims to empower individuals to build practical coping strategies, increase self-understanding, and navigate life changes with more resilience. Anthony offers a collaborative and respectful approach, helping people clarify their goals and take steady steps toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Anthony Simpson works primarily from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-directive space where the therapist follows the client's lead, helping people explore their feelings, build self-understanding, and draw on their own strengths to cope with issues such as low self-esteem, grief, and life changes.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and developing practical strategies to change them. CBT can be especially useful for managing anxiety, panic symptoms, low mood, and problems with motivation by teaching skills for thinking differently and testing new behaviours.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative part of the process. Anthony will work with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and together determine which methods or combination of methods fit best.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to access support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to connect from different locations, and to choose the communication style that feels most helpful while working with registered professionals and therapists.
