Simone Polden
Anxiety and Confidence
I’m a Clinical Hypnotherapist and RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy) Practitioner based in Margate, Kent. My background is in helping women with anxiety, low confidence and phobias — offering therapy that’s kind, encouraging and focused on real results. I work both online and in person, and often use a package-based model to support people through a short but focused series of sessions.
Clients often tell me they feel deeply seen and supported in our work together. I bring a warm, non-judgemental presence to therapy, and I aim to help you feel more confident and in control. Whether you’re carrying past experiences that still affect you or just want to stop second-guessing yourself all the time, I’ll meet you where you are and gently guide you forward. I also bring insights from my training as a doula, which helps me support women through emotional life changes with care and sensitivity.
Who I work with
The clients I work best with are often looking for a safe, encouraging space to pause, reflect and make sense of what they’re feeling. While I welcome anyone who feels drawn to my approach, my experience and passion lie especially in working with:
​​
-
Women experiencing anxiety or panic
-
Confidence and self-esteem issues
-
Social fears and phobias
-
People navigating big life changes or transitions
-
Past experiences that still feel “unfinished” or unresolved
-
Feelings of not being good enough or holding yourself back
-
Inner critics and self-doubt that won’t let up
-
Those new to therapy, looking for a gentle place to start
My clients are often kind, thoughtful people who feel stuck, anxious, or weighed down by self-doubt. Some are facing a major life change, while others just want to feel more confident in themselves but don’t know where to start. You don’t need a diagnosis or a clear label to begin — just a sense that something needs to shift. I offer a calm, supportive space where we can explore what’s holding you back and gently start building new ways forward, at a pace that feels right for you.
How I work
I offer both in-person sessions in Margate, Kent, and online sessions via Zoom. My work is flexible to your needs — whether you prefer a single session to explore something specific or a structured package of support over six to nine weeks. Many clients choose my RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy) package, which includes an in-depth initial session and follow-up support to help you make lasting changes.
​
In our sessions, you can expect a kind, supportive environment where you’re listened to without judgement. I often work with women navigating anxiety, self-doubt or past experiences that still feel unresolved. I combine hypnotherapy, RTT and talking therapy to help you access deeper understanding and create emotional shifts. I work well with clients who are open to exploring their inner world and want to build greater confidence and clarity. Sessions are calm, encouraging and focused on helping you feel lighter and more in control.
