Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Danbury, CT

Hello and welcome! I’m Simone, and I want you to know that my goal is to help you feel truly heard. Therapy with me is a relaxed, judgment-free space where you can be yourself — unapologetically.

I specialize in supporting people with ADHD, anxiety, stress, life transitions, trauma, and those exploring alternative lifestyles and relationships. Whether you’re looking for a sounding board or deeper healing, I’m here for you.

If you don’t see a time that works for you, feel free to message or email me — my schedule is often more flexible than it looks!

Welcome! I am glad that you are here.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. My goal is to support you to better understand yourself, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LICSW) in CT and MA with more than 15 years of experience treating children, adolescents, adults, and families as they navigate life’s challenges. I have completed advanced studies in trauma and have extensive experience working with anxiety and mood disorders, as well. I have had the honor of working in multiple settings with a range of people and communities and am so grateful for each opportunity I have had to support and partner with someone towards their goals and through their struggles.

My practice is fully virtual, allowing clients to access therapy from the comfort and privacy of their chosen environment.

Clients should know that I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental, and confidential space where they can feel heard and understood. I believe in building trust through empathy, active listening, and honest communication. My approach is client-centered, meaning I work collaboratively to help individuals identify goals, develop coping strategies, and navigate personal challenges at their own pace. I value compassion, professionalism, and respect for each person’s unique experiences and background.

As a result, my expertise in psychopharmacology is built upon years of nursing experience in various healthcare settings including hospitals, schools and academia.

My philosophy is very Jungian-based. I offer a masculine perspective to help those in learning about how to help relate to themselves better and then offer better relationships with others. My work is centered on the truth that when we see reality we are set free. The matrix keeps you stuck and enslaved. My mission is to help people free themselves so they can connect to their true nature and feel more fulfilled. I use health, nature, sexuality, and spirit to help others.
