Therapists in New Waverly, TX

Hi! My name is Jamie Simmons and I just want to start off by saying I am proud of you for taking the hardest step, reaching out. I know starting therapy can be intimidating, but I will guide you every step of the way to help make the process as comfortable and effective as possible. I use a variety of approaches that are specifically tailored to each adolescent, individual, couple, and family because every situation is unique. I believe you are the expert of your life because only you live in your body and know your every thought, but I bring in a new perspective, and different therapeutic techniques to help you reach your goals.

Are you a teen or young adult who overthinks, worries too much, has difficulty focusing because of stress, or fears you're falling behind? Do college, choosing a career path, managing relationships or life transitions feel overwhelming? The pressure to be attractive, fit in, feel understood, earn top grades, and get into the best schools are hard on teens. Choosing a career path, interviewing, living on your own or supporting yourself, or making big relationship decisions can feel scary as a young adult. You don’t have to go this alone. I provide individual counseling and couples counseling for adults, adolescents, and children.

Courage, compassion, curiosity, and vulnerability are key elements of my practice as I help people throughout their therapeutic journey. I prioritize an honest, non-judgemental, open, genuine space and therapeutic relationship to best aid you with what your journey entails and encompasses. My work consists of supporting adults and teens ages 16 and up through complex trauma history and healing, navigating close and intimate relationships, unpacking major life transitions, intentional exploration of your identity and sense of self, or processing the unbearable loss of a loved one.

Mental health struggles, whether intense or mild, can really make everyday life difficult. Sometimes these struggles affect us personally and other times they affect the people around us, making us collateral damage. Attending therapy can help us learn skills to manage such struggles. For example, processing is a skill that allows us to understand our thoughts, understand our feelings, accept certain aspects of our lives and situations, and work through the struggle to move on. Learning to process and work through our struggles can make a huge difference in how we handle stress and daily life situations.

I am passionate about helping individuals and families reach their unique, personal goals. I believe a client grows best when there is a positive therapeutic relationship built in a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere. Those who want to build interpersonal insight, increase self-awareness, and are willing to implement new skills will benefit most from therapy. The ability to visualize their desired outcome is an important part of the therapeutic journey for clients and is key in the redevelopment of their personal identity.
