If you feel that this will be of help and you have a fully functional land line or a suitable video set up such as WhatsApp or Teams online we would then agree a date and time for your remote cognitive behavioural therapy sessions to start after you have made your first payment.

Your Cognitive Behavioural Therapist
Hi my name is Simon and after a long period of agoraphobia resulting from a traumatic period in my life I made the life changing decision of training to become a therapist. I first qualified as a clinical hypnotherapist over 30 years ago at St Charles Hospital (London) and then went on to gain my qualifications in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and crisis, trauma and PTSD counselling at the highly regarded Centre for Stress Management (London) where I also qualified in critical incident stress debriefing (CISD). In addition to my trauma based training I have recently gained a qualification in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I was attached to the Trauma Support Centre as a therapist in Bromley where the team were on call in the event of a critical incident. This would involve major incidents such as dealing with a train derailment. After working in this environment for a number of years I started my own private practice which is still going strong in 2025. In conjunction with my private practice I worked as an NHS cognitive behavioural therapist and counsellor at Hatton Medical Practice dealing with a wide range of issues via GP referral. The presenting problems spanned from treatment for mild depression to overcoming thoughts of suicide. From 2001 to 2011 I was running cognitive behavioural therapy workshops for treatment of anxiety issues, confidence building, assertiveness training, anger management, self esteem and stop smoking groups based at a mental health centre for adult men and women. I also oversaw an NHS recommended "Beating the Blues" computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) programme to help in dealing with mild to moderate depression and anxiety at the Centre. The staff worked with the therapists, community mental health teams (CMHT) , the NHS and social workers involved in the clients mental health care to ensure a balanced treatment plan was put into place. The Centre received an award given by GlaxoSmithKline as a Centre of Excellence.
My Private Practice
My private practice is based in Egham, Surrey which is located about ten minutes drive from the Royal Borough of Windsor located in Berkshire.

I offer telephone administered cognitive behavioural therapy sessions and an on-line telephone counselling service for the treatment of men and women who may be housebound, disabled, live in remote areas or have no immediate contact with family or friends, have agoraphobia or just prefer this therapy approach. This treatment method is available worldwide to all British expatriates and English speaking residents of any country.
