Getting to know Dr. Chesha Simon
PLEASE NOTE: Out of network with insurance, sessions are self-pay only. Thank you.
Dr. Chesha Simon is the lead clinician behind CRES Wellness PLLC.
Are you looking to use therapy as a step toward growth on your own terms? Do you worry if you're good enough? Is it almost impossible to get and stay motivated to make changes? Is burnout debilitating? Has it become difficult to remember who you are and what you want, leading you to fade into the background of your own life? If you answered "yes" to any of these, consider CRES Wellness.
Dr. Simon earned her PsyD in Clinical Psychology and a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Immaculata University. She is a licensed clinical psychologist with over 12 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. Having worked in multiple treatment settings—from least to most restrictive—she helps people make positive, lasting changes by empowering them to tap into their strengths and recognize the importance of self-love and personal growth.
Dr. Simon works with individuals managing self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and other impactful concerns. She has also trained parents and foster parents in behavioral techniques and self-regulatory strategies to better support their children.
Who is the "ideal client"? The ideal client seeks therapy as a step toward growth on their terms. They value a collaborator who balances intersecting identities and provides evidence-based, empirically supported interventions in meaningful, digestible ways. They want someone genuine and empathic, offering practical strategies and accountability. Most of all, the ideal client understands they are free to hold space together and deserve a life they feel connected to and proud of—and Dr. Simon is committed to helping them get there.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I use an integrated and individualized approach that will be informed in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and behavioral therapy. Treatment would include tailoring our work to your specific needs and would require goal setting early in treatment. There will be collaborative action steps and practices incorporated within our work, if desired.
Current services include individual psychological services (60-minute psychotherapy appointments) for adults via telehealth only for individuals in the states of Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Services are for individuals 18 years and older only.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
The therapeutic process is collaborative, we can work together to establish goals for each session that connect to your overall treatment needs. Some sessions may include skill practice if desired.
