It is the therapist's job to facilitate and maintain a client relationship that fosters insight, healing and growth through a process of active listening and emotional support.
As an experienced psychologist, I have worked with with clients having concerns ranging from difficulties in daily living to more serious mental health problems such as anxiety, mood disorders and depression. I also have broad experience with substance abuse and PTSD. I see individuals, couples and families and have worked extensively with military veterans. Goals of treatment include developing more effective coping strategies, relief of guilt and fear, self-acceptance, identifying personal resources, and restoring connections to others.

I have a broad range of counseling experience and have worked with many personal, behavioral, and cultural issues over my 20+ year counseling career. I utilize a holistic approach to help you create positive change within your life. We all encounter transitions in our lifetime (e.g., divorce, relationship issues, illness, death of loved ones, occupational conflicts, separation from employment, end of military service, empty nests, etc.), but it is often the way we respond to these challenges more than the actual challenges themselves that impacts our overall physical and emotional health and wellbeing.

Therapy can be extremely beneficial for a variety of life stressors and challenges, and yet it can be overwhelming to make that first call. In my office, you will find the comfort and acceptance needed to make this process not just manageable, but rewarding and healing.

Accepting New Clients+ The "game-changers" for my clients are the "AHA" moments; the moments they find themselves thinking about something differently than before. That moment can change a person, and it can change their destiny. The majority of my clients are young adult females looking to understand what’s wrong with them… dating life, home life, work life… it all seems too overwhelming and there are more questions than answers. The aha moments come when we connect the dots between childhood experiences and current mind-set. There is nothing wrong with you; and what happened is not your fault.

Currently taking clients for >diagnostic evaluations<, couples, & >group therapy<. I am a caring, evidence-based, and holistic (consideration of the whole) therapist looking forward to challenging cases from people needing my expertise. Making use of a wide variety of therapies, from verbal to non-verbal, devoting much time on each of the select cases I take, and engaging in colleague consultations, I am often able to help with even the most challenging of issues. I also see children, doing family therapy even for the toughest kids. You'll see the difference family support makes, rather than my just trying to "fix the kid".

Throughout my career, I have been told I work well with those handling their past or current traumas, and I have often worked well with those in alternative relationships.
Hello and welcome! My name is Simone and I am excited to start working with you. Before our first session, I want you to know my goal is to help you feel heard, and show you that therapy can be a very relaxing, judgement free zone where you can be unapologetically you.
