Psychologist
OH
Dr. Jeff Simmons, PsyD, is a licensed clinical psychologist committed to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with empathy, trust, and collaboration. He holds a Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University and a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science from Boston College. Dr. Simmons brings a unique blend of analytical thinking and emotional insight to his work, integrating both logic and compassion in the therapeutic space. Originally drawn to helping others without knowing exactly how, Dr. Simmons discovered psychology as the ideal fit for his passion for personal growth, human connection, and meaningful change. His clinical approach is integrative and evidence-based, drawing from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), emotion-focused techniques, somatic practices, and mindfulness. He works with adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship issues, substance use, sleep disturbances, and chronic illness—always tailoring care to each client’s unique needs and values. Dr. Simmons is known for creating an inclusive, affirming space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered. And he prioritizes building strong therapeutic relationships grounded in authenticity and mutual respect. His personal journey deeply informs his professional path. Growing up in a small New England town, Dr. Simmons faced prejudice related to a speech disorder and differences in appearance. These early experiences shaped his empathy, strengthened his belief in the power of diversity, and led to a lifelong commitment to inclusion and equity. Outside of his clinical work, Dr. Simmons enjoys skiing, hiking, solving puzzles, playing video games, and spending time with loved ones. He brings the same curiosity, playfulness, and presence from his personal life into his work with clients.

I registered as they requested and I never received instructions on our virtual visit and Jeffrey Simmons was a no show with no contact letting us know. My husband I are dealing with some stressful situations and was looking forward to talking to someone who was neutral, but that never happened. Very frustrating.
