If your are reading this professional biography, I imagine you are looking for a therapist that will be the right fit for you. Someone who is competent and experienced and will listen to you with a genuine interest and connection. Someone that will help you with strategies to reduce stress and anxiety and assist you in practical planning to create changes. Over the years I have been that therapist for many people; working with them on issues due to anxiety, depression and major life stressors. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you for a consultation and discuss your needs.

Are you or a loved one struggling with stress, anxiety or depression? Are your coping skills helping or hurting you? In life, we all experience times when we struggle whether it be with guilt, shame, grief/loss, relationship issues or adjustment to change. With a little help, we can move through this and get to a brighter life. In the 20 years I have been a therapist I have helped many people with these issues. One of my favorite quotes is “If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got. If you want something different, do something different.” Counseling is the process that can help with this.

So glad you found your way here! Have you heard the phrase "our issues are in our tissues?" This may sound strange but it’s the reason why traditional talk therapy alone is often not enough. As a result of negative life events, unhealthy relationships, pain, loss, illness, or modern-day stressors, many of us are unable to fully process our emotions, which become stored in our bodies and unconsciously drive our repeated behaviors and thought patterns. We become disconnected not only from those around us but most importantly, from ourselves. In order to move through current challenges, it's necessary to address both mind + body.

Hi, I’m Shimon (he/him). I’m a licensed clinical social worker in Maine and Florida. I have a Master of Science in Social Work from Columbia University and over 20 years of experience working with youth, adults, families, and communities, as well as teaching social work students and providing training to professionals.

I have specific expertise with depression, anxiety, substance use, pre-teens, teens, adults, parenting, sociocultural impact/challenges, and men's issues.

People seek therapy for a host of reasons, but the goals of counseling tend to be fairly universal: change, growth, acceptance, and understanding. You may be considering therapy because you feel overwhelmed or dissatisfied about some part(s) of your life. It could be that you are navigating a cancer diagnosis, anxiety, grief, or are caretaking for a family member. Life challenges, including parenting, career, and/or interpersonal relationships may be impinging on your happiness and well-being. If you are seeking a place to talk about your experiences, you've taken the first step in the process of change: acknowledging an issue.

Is the pattern of "reacting" rather than "responding" negatively impacting your relationships and professional life? Is your self-esteem battered from being constantly criticized for overreacting? These are indications that the issue lies in your nervous system rather than your cognitive process. When this is the case, it makes sense to focus treatment on developing techniques to modulate your nervous system. This will help you access critical thinking and respond in a productive way. Your relationships, career, and self-esteem will benefit when you are able to formulate a response rather than be driven by emotional reactivity.

I have a passion for working with teens and adults. Sessions with me are focused on you and the goals you want to achieve. As a client centered therapist, I have a strong belief that meeting you where you are at during this time in your life is extremely important to embark on this journey together. I will hold space for you to be your authentic self. It’s important that you can take valuable insights away from every meeting and that you feel heard and validated.

Life is a series of transitions and at times we find ourselves facing questions that may seem overwhelming. If you're seeking guidance or simply someone to share your thoughts with you've come to the right place. I am here to accompany you on this path, providing compassionate and non-judgmental support. Navigating questions about yourself, dealing with loss, managing life transitions, and enhancing coping skills can be challenging, but you don't have to face them alone. Together we can explore the intricacies of your thoughts and emotions, helping you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and the world around you.

At Evolve, we have an engaged style of therapy that doesn’t let you “monologue” the session. We believe in the power of venting, and while listening is at the core of any therapeutic relationship, we are also trained to challenge those thoughts and feelings that are not serving you well. Many of our clients have had previous experiences that left them with that “been there, done that” type of feeling. That is why they came to us. We support you every step of the way, but we also challenge you and lead you to live the life you deserve. Your journey starts here.
