As a Licensed Social Worker with a background in intensive healthcare, I bring a deeply compassionate, real-world approach to healing relationships and minds. I specialize in couples therapy, anxiety, and depression, helping both individuals and partners navigate the heavy seasons of life.

I help partners move past chronic conflict, heal from emotional distance, and rebuild trust using evidence-based, collaborative relationship strategies. For individuals battling anxiety, depression, or life-altering curveballs, I provide structured CBT and trauma-informed care to help you discover practical coping tools and and regain your confidence.

Whether you are working to heal your relationship or your own internal peace, you don’t have to walk this path alone. Let's work together to build a resilient, fulfilling future.

Hi, I'm Simone, a licensed clinical social worker passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I strive to create a supportive space where clients can show up fully as themselves without judgment. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, and I meet each client where they are while honoring their unique identities, strengths, and cultural and lived experiences. Many of the clients I work with are seeking to heal from past traumas, improve family dynamics, build healthier relationships, manage stress and anxiety, and reconnect with their sense of purpose while rebuilding their self-confidence. 

My goal is to help clients feel empowered to grow, heal, and create lasting change. I believe therapy is a collaborative process that doesn't require you to become someone different—it begins with feeling heard and respected as you reconnect. My work incorporates CBT, DBT, solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. 

I believe that no matter where you are in your journey, you do not have to navigate it alone. Taking care of yourself is the most courageous act you can take. If you are ready to take the next step and begin your healing, I invite you to schedule an appointment. Together, we can work toward creating the best and healthiest version of yourself.
