Nicole DeSimone, LMFT

Marriage and Family Therapist
1370 N Brea Blvd, Ste 132, Fullerton, CA
I am a cash-pay provider unable to accept insurance directly as payment. All clients will be considered out of network, and a superbill can be provided. I specialize in working with clients who want to make positive changes in their relationships-whether those relationships are romantic, familial, friendly, or professional. When working with couples, I support clients in creating a common love language uniquely tailored to their shared values. When working with individuals, I help clients align with their core values as they navigate dating, family, friendships, and the workplace. I have extensive experience supporting LGBTQ+ and ethnically non-monogamous relationships. I view therapy as a creative, relational process. My practice is person-centered and emotionally focused, often emphasizing boundary work and active listening techniques. Through a relational lens, I support clients in reducing symptoms connected with anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, and relationship distress. I believe in lifelong learning, continually expanding my knowledge of therapeutic techniques and integrating them into my practice. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical, Counseling, and Applied Psychology from the University of the West and a Bachelor's degree from California State University, Dominguez Hills. Our lives and relationships can be chaotic and overwhelming. The good news is, you don't have to figure things out by yourself. Together, we can build an emotional toolkit that will help you thrive. Whether you are seeking short-term, solution-focused therapy or aiming to build a deep and lasting connection, I look forward to hearing from you.

More information on payments and coverage

I am primarily a cash pay provider and only able to accept clients with Aetna in-network. My services are typically eligible for the use of HSA and FSA accounts. I can provide a statement for reimbursement that you can provide to your insurance company if they reimburse for out of network providers, but I am unable to coordinate coverage or speak with your insurance provider directly. I may be able to offer a sliding scale or lower session rate for clients who are interested in long term weekly therapy.
