Simone Cote

Welcome! I'm Simone, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of mental health experience in hospitals, schools, and nonprofits. I work with adolescents, adults, and families navigating transitions, identity, anxiety, trauma, and more that don't fit neatly into a category. I love therapy and working with individuals to help them feel empowered and able to have their voices heard. If you're wondering whether therapy is right for you right now, I'd love to help you figure that out.

I believe therapy works best when it feels collaborative and grounded in your real life — not a one-size-fits-all formula. I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches, solution-focused work, and trauma-informed care to meet each client where they are. Whether you're working through a transition, family complexity, loss, or just feeling off, I bring warmth and (when fitting) humor to each session.

In our first session you can expect a warm and safe environment to share what's bringing you in, what's been feeling hard, and what you're hoping therapy might offer you. There's no pressure to have it all figured out — just come as you are. By the end, we'll have a sense of whether we're a good fit and what working together would look like going forward.
