About Simone
Simone Hamilton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with six years of clinical experience. She helps people dealing with grief, anger, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, and adapting to life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and draw on practical therapeutic methods to address communication problems, loneliness, life purpose, and self-love.
Simone’s background includes direct counseling across schools, college counseling centers, church and community settings, and private practice. She has worked with children, teens, and young adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-worth. That variety shaped how she approaches common problems adults bring after major changes in work, relationships, or health.
Her style is described as eclectic, drawing from person-centered ideas, cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and dialectical behavioral practices. In sessions she uses plain language and concrete tools - thought work, emotion regulation skills, and mindful attention - to help clients test new ways of responding. The focus is on practical steps people can take between meetings.
Simone emphasizes collaboration in planning care and clarifying short-term goals. She pays attention to everyday routines and communication patterns that affect mood and purpose. When career or life purpose is a concern, she helps break decisions into manageable tasks and clearer options.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Fees vary with location, and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Simone uses several evidence-based methods in her work. Person-centered ideas focus on listening and building understanding so clients can name what matters and decide next steps. Cognitive-behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors to identify patterns that keep someone stuck and offer experiments to test new ways of thinking. Mindfulness and dialectical behavioral practices teach attention and emotion regulation skills to reduce overwhelm and improve everyday coping.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Simone treats approach selection as collaborative, looking at a person's goals, current problems, and what feels useful in early sessions. She adjusts tools and tasks based on how a client responds over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people attend from different locations when schedules change. It also makes it possible to practice communication exercises in real contexts and to bring work-week changes into conversation without extra commuting.
