About Simone
Simone Hamilton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as grief, anger, self-esteem, career strain, and coping with major life changes, using practical strategies to address everyday struggles.
Her background includes work in schools, college counseling centers, church and community settings, and private practice. That variety shaped how she approaches therapy: drawing on several evidence-informed methods to match what each person needs. She has experience supporting people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and problems with assertiveness and boundaries.
In sessions she uses a blend of person-centered ideas, cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and skills from dialectical behavior approaches. That mix lets her focus on thoughts and behaviors, emotional regulation, and developing clearer communication. The work is collaborative - the client’s experience guides the plan.
Simone aims to help people strengthen emotional skills and practical coping. That can mean learning ways to respond to anger that reduce regrets, building self-worth, or planning career steps without getting overwhelmed. She also supports people struggling with loneliness, life purpose, and self-love.
Her style is straightforward and respect-focused. People who want clear, down-to-earth tools and a therapist who combines conversation with skill practice often find this approach useful.
How sessions work
How her therapeutic methods translate to online sessions
Simone draws on person-centered principles, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and mindfulness-based skills. Person-centered ideas focus on listening and understanding a person’s perspective so goals emerge from their experience. Cognitive-behavioral approaches look at unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and teach practical ways to shift them. Mindfulness work trains present-moment awareness and helps with emotional regulation and impulse control.Finding the right mix of these methods is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each client to choose which techniques to use based on current concerns, goals, and what feels workable in day-to-day life. The plan can change as progress is made or priorities shift.
Confirm the therapist’s current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and keep sessions to a length that suits a lunch break or evening check-in. Phone sessions can reduce the need to be on camera and video sessions can allow for face-to-face interaction when preferred. These practical choices help therapy fit into real life rather than creating extra strain.
