MY SERVICES
I offer solution-focued therapy for adults and adolescents.
ADOLESCENTS THERAPY
Adolescents, or teens, become more independent. They may form identities by trying out new behaviors and roles. It brings many physical and emotional changes. Changes during these years may strain parent-teen relationships. New behaviors may go beyond boundary-pushing and cause problems. Emotional highs and lows may persist. This could lead to anxiety or depression.

ABOUT THERAPY
Personalized Attention for All Your Needs
Perhaps you're down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and in my sessions I promote behavioral transformation by encouraging a positive outlook and the adoption of new attitudes and reactions. I have the tools and professional experience to help you get back on track.
​
Remember that online counseling is not suitable if you are experiencing suicidal thoughts. In such cases you should inform your family or friends about your intentions and seek psychiatric help in the nearest hospital. You can return to counseling once your psychiatrist has advised so.

TESTIMONIALS
Dr. Simon helped me get over an emotional issue I had with my mother, although I am an adult person. It had been a long-standing problem for me that I could not solve for many years, in spite of using counseling previously with other therapists. I am very grateful for the opportunity to meet Dr. Simon
Rachel
My sessions with Simon came at an anxious and uncertain point for me, and I am happy to say they've been incredibly helpful. His non-judgemental and friendly manner made it easy to talk about emotionally intense topics and address them head-on, which I really appreciate. His reliably astute observations allowed me to consider my perspectives in a way I hadn't before. They also left no room for me to find escape routes to avoid my issues, which is exactly what I was looking for in a therapist! Simon helped me navigate obstacles and discern my own ways around them, which was why these sessions have been impactful. I'm able to see growth even over such a short period of time. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for therapy!

FAQS
WHAT KIND OF THERAPY DO YOU WORK WITH?
I largely work using the solution-focused therapy because it is the most honest and the most effective modality I have experienced. I blend this method with other techniques I have learnt for over 10 years of education in therapy.
​
Among others, I am certified in the Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy and I have completed an internship in clinical psychology working with modalities such as the Jungian analysis, art therapy, group therapy and family (systemic) therapy. I also have experience with the more contemplative method of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
IS ONLINE THERAPY EFFECTIVE?
It can certainly be effective. However, it is not equivalent to in-person sessions. Nevertheless, the online modality can improve the focus during sessions and may be more practical for people who do not wish to commute.
HOW TO PREPARE FOR AN ONLINE THERAPY SESSION?
It's important that you reserve this time strictly for the purpose of the session. You should be alone in a room and have a sense of absolute privacy. Make sure you have a good internet connection. Recording of the sessions is not allowed.
HOW MANY THERAPY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?
This is very personal but people often begin to notice sings of durable progress after about 10 sessions. I will help you re-evaluate the progress every 4-6 sessions. It normal to feel like there are "ups and downs" during the course of your therapy. It's important to stay on track and be committed.
IS EVERYTHING I SAY DURING THERAPY PRIVATE?
Yes, there is full privacy ensured. The recording of sessions in not allowed. I adhere to the Ethics Code of psychologists.
HOW LONG DOES EACH THERAPY SESSION TAKE?
A typical session takes 60 minutes.
WHAT WILL WE TALK ABOUT DURING THE SESSIONS?
It is entirely up to you what you wish to talk about. I work on clients' hopes and expectations from therapy by helping them develop self-knowledge about their own resources. Every session will end with a summary, recommendations and often also a home assignment for the client.
HOW WILL I KNOW IF A THERAPIST IS A RIGHT FIT FOR ME?
There is a couple of signs that you have found the right therapist for you:
-you are in a trusting relationship with your therapist
-the therapy sessions and in-between session exercises are challenging you at times
-you feel like you are putting in some work in order to achieve your desired future
-the therapist refrains from giving you advice and life directions - you should always have complete freedom of choice and control over your life
-the therapist confronts you with your most significant emotions and thoughts - even the less comfortable ones
-the therapist helps you construct a vision for your desired future rather than excessively dwelling on your past
-you start observing changes in your life and possibly also start putting yourself in new kinds of situations that can help you achieve your desired outcome
-the therapist should not insist that you continue therapy for excessively long periods of time - it's up to you how long you wish to continue
