Simone is trained in CBT therapy, however, she offers a collaborative and holistic approach that promotes healing changes. In the course of your journey together you will determine the thoughts that lead you to feel self-doubt, anxiety, or overwhelming sadness. She believes in creating a space for clients to feel heard, validated, and supported. Simone believes in empowering clients and ensuring a strength-based, solution-focused approach as we walk through this process one step at a time.

We love to travel and dance together. I enjoy working out and staying as active as possible. I feel the most peace when taking in live music and can go to the same concert twice if it's really good! I love watching movies, particularly horror and documentaries. I am always looking to take in new artistic experiences including theater, galleries, and love the feeling of attending broadway shows. My personal life goal is to feel as much peace as possible.”
