Couples Counseling Therapists in Brooklyn, NY

Welcome! I am Shari Simon (she/they), an NYS licensed therapist, supervised by Amira Martin, LCSW-R. I offer virtual therapy to individuals, couples , and families. I have years of experience supporting clients who are navigating interpersonal challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, self-esteem, work challenges, and life transitions. I also serve couples looking for couples therapy and/or premarital counseling. Many of my previous clients have been high-functioning professionals, couples , and students. I work with all clients but place a focus on supporting marginalized communities (BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, neurodiverse, poly, etc).

I believe the purpose of psychotherapy is to ease emotional and relationship difficulties and increase satisfaction in life. Clients come to therapy with diverse needs, but typically they are seeking help either to deal with immediate life crises or to address ongoing challenges. In my practice these have included issues of anxiety and depression; bereavement; effects of trauma; parenting and relationship concerns; and varied behavior problems. I see both children and adults and have a subspecialty in couples counseling . For psychotherapeutic techniques to be successful they must be adapted to the client's unique needs and circumstances.

Navigating life’s challenges in an increasingly chaotic world can feel overwhelming, scary, and even numbing; as a licensed counselor I believe in the power of therapy to facilitate healing, growth, safety, serenity, and self-actualization in the face of life's many demands. I am a passionate advocate for social equity, justice, and accessibility to services for all, and while I work with people of all walks and persuasions, I specialize in therapy with fellow members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use challenges, and those dealing with trauma, depression, and anxiety.

My eclectic professional and cultural background powers my ability to join with people from all walks of life, young and old. In particular, my bilingual upbringing and life experience allows me to practice psychotherapy in Russian with native Russian speakers.

What are the stories we tell ourselves, about ourselves? Where do we learn them? Therapy is a great place to start creating new stories that are more aligned with your values and desires.

My areas of expertise include working with children and adolescents who have experienced trauma and family conflict, though I work with individuals of all ages to help them manage the stressors of life and achieve greater self-awareness

Albert Einstein said, "A problem cannot be solved by the mind that created it." Therapy gives us a safe relationship where we can explore our inner world and consider taking new risks in our outer one. To my mind, therapy is the process of talking things over with someone and, together, giving meaning and hope to pain and confusion. I endeavor to bring respect and curiosity to our conversation. I believe that we each have the wisdom to solve our problems, but our strengths get blocked when we experience trauma, depression, or overwhelming anxiety. In our work together, I aim to help you reconnect with your innate ability to thrive.
