Therapy for Individuals, Couples, and Families. You are here reading about me because you have likely been suffering – individually or with the ones you love. I have always said “We are messy people…” Our feelings, thoughts, actions often cause unintended conflict – miscommunication devolving into an increasing distance with those we intend to be closer to. Sound familiar? I have been an active advocate for families for over 30 years and a psychotherapist for nearly 20 years with a private practice focusing on Marital and Family discord, trauma recovery, severe depression, the treatment of anxiety disorders and chemical dependency
I realize that no two people are the same and as such tailor my therapy to meet the specific needs of my clients. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression or any other issue, I will help you recognize underlying problems, fully realize your strengths and adjust certain behaviors and thoughts to see things a different, healthier way.
David Simons founded his private therapy practice as a way to form closer connections with anyone in need of mental health care. With nearly 20 years of professional experience, he pairs an empathic and evidence based approach with a lively collaborative style.
