Every now and then life has a way of hitting us hard. I believe that when individuals enter counseling they are feeling gridlocked in their current situation and need assistance navigating their way out of the storms. I see counseling as a process by which I guide my client in exploration and identification of their needs. Through therapeutic techniques I help raise clients' awareness of ineffective behaviors and distorted thinking that may be standing in the way of the change they desire. At Sims Counseling & Consulting, we believe that transformation begins with renewed thoughts, meaning if you change your thinking; you can change your life!

I help leaders, executives and other high-achievers process difficult childhoods, manage stress, anxiety or depression and find work life balance. Just because you carry it well, doesn't mean it isn't heavy! I also specialize in helping people move through life transitions such as graduating college or the birth of a child. It is important to me to provide a supportive, authentic, and encouraging space where the individuals I work with can safely sit with their pain and face it in order to overcome its hold on their lives.

Healing is a messy process-- it takes courage and grit, it requires internal resources and consistent support, it forces us to go backward before we can even think of moving forward in ways that would make us feel proud. Despite the difficulty, you know that what you need is not a band-aid. You need something more thorough. Something that will help you to not only deal with the pain of the things that have already happened, the things that have been done to you and the shame around choices you may have made, but you need to know that in the future you won't have to continue feeling this way as new choices and challenges emerge.

Anxiety has hijacked your life. You’re really good at imagining the worst case scenario. Your mind is excellent at anticipating the future, and at replaying things that have already happened. You question whether you are good enough and often feel self-conscious. You overthink everything. And your body buys in to this story – heart racing, shallow breathing, your stomach in knots. All of this worry is overwhelming. It impacts almost every aspect of your life. It prevents you from doing what you want to do, from living the way you want to live. Your life is becoming smaller and smaller … AND YOU’VE HAD ENOUGH.
