Our Tutors
Simon Heath
Tutor & Partner
Hello, I am Simon; a tutor and partner at Step by Step Counselling College and an Ecotherapist – specialising in walk and therapies - I have a strong belief in the power of (re)connecting with nature as part of the therapeutic process. Before setting up Step by Step with Becky, I was a counselling tutor for six years and before that worked in a variety of environments including a prison, hospitals and a watermill. My passion in teaching focuses on growth through personal development and cultural identity, and I am really excited to be able to bring these and many other creative elements together in the teaching.

Becky Whittaker
Tutor & Partner
Hi, my name is Becky and I am a partner and tutor here at Step by Step Counselling College. Simon and I developed this college to be a warm, supportive and rich space to learn in. I am an experienced counsellor and supervisor, with over a decades experience of working in private practice and I have always had a very special interest in working with student counsellors on their road through to qualifying. I have past experience in training and mentoring, so it is time to bring my skills together and my passion for helping to grow confidence and let people become the counsellor that they want to be. I can't wait to get to know you.

College Supervisor

Following a successful career in International Banking, People Management and Training she found a love of counselling. she set up and managed a counselling service, emotional telephone support and issue focussed training for unpaid carers across Devon. Her passion then turned to teaching and she worked as a counselling tutor for the over 10 years, supporting Step By Step as a tutor and now as our supervisor. Although no longer directly involved in teaching her passion, care and love for others remains a keystone of the college.
