Great to meet you!

Hello,

I’m Simone Nickerson, a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in supporting adults and military service members through depression, anxiety, trauma & PTSD, mood and emotional dysregulation, and other challenges with coping. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply personalized. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are and begin to share your story at your own pace. You come first—your voice, your goals, your pace. My role is to empower you, not to impose a one-size-fits-all solution.

My approach to therapy

I’m passionate about this work because I’ve walked through my own challenges and know firsthand how transformative the right support can be. Having received help from compassionate professionals when I needed it most, I now dedicate myself to offering that same gift of understanding and hope to others. My goal is simple: to guide you on your healing journey.

What you can expect from me

In our first few sessions, we’ll focus on building genuine rapport so you feel comfortable and confident in our working alliance. Then we work together to identify what matters most to you right now—not a rigid textbook plan. I meet you where you are, tailoring support to your immediate needs so we can create meaningful, lasting change.
