Simina Simion

I offer long-term, weekly psychoanalytic psychotherapy for adults navigating deep emotional pain, complex trauma, and relational struggles. My work is for those who are high-functioning on the outside, but internally tired — overwhelmed by anxiety, emptiness, people-pleasing, or repeating the same painful patterns in relationships. Perhaps you’ve been in therapy before but felt it only scratched the surface. In my practice, we go to the root. I work slowly and deeply, helping you understand the unconscious patterns that formed early in life — often around difficult attachment, emotional neglect, or survival strategies you no longer need. Together we make sense of your internal world and create space for a more authentic, grounded self to emerge. This is not short-term work. The therapy I offer is a steady, respectful process of inner transformation. Most of my clients stay with me for several years. The change happens not through techniques, but through a meaningful relationship that holds your full truth — even the parts you’ve hidden from yourself. I’m trained in psychoanalytic psychotherapy and attachment, with over a decade of experience working with trauma, narcissistic relationships, dysfunctional coping mechanisms, and relational breakdown. I work entirely online and offer one to four sessions per week, depending on what’s needed. Fee: £90 per 50-minute session. Weekly commitment required. If this sounds like the kind of space you’ve been needing, I offer a free 20-minute consultation to explore if we’re the right fit.
