Craig Simmons, LPC

Craig Simmons, LPC

Psychotherapist
VA
I am a person-centered therapist with a deep commitment to creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment. I firmly believe that you are the expert of your own experiences and that our work together should revolve around your needs and goals. As a sex-positive therapist, my goal is to foster an open and affirming space for discussions about sexuality, traditional and nontraditional relationships, and sexual identity. With a Master's in Professional Counseling from South University, I bring both education and empathy to my practice. As a geek-aware therapist, I understand the power of pop culture, gaming, technology, and all things nerdy. I embrace your passions, whether it's delving into comic books, discussing the latest sci-fi TV series, or exploring video game narratives. Geek culture offers a rich tapestry of themes and references that we can use to deepen our therapeutic conversations and make the process more engaging and relatable to you. My passions lie in working with young adults, couples, and addressing the challenges and pressures men face.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I understand the unique pressures, identity exploration, and life transitions that young adults face, and I am dedicated to providing the guidance and support needed to navigate these complexities successfully. I believe that healthy relationships are the foundation for personal growth and happiness. I work with couples facing communication difficulties, intimacy concerns, and other relationship challenges, to help you and your partner strengthen your connection and cultivate a thriving partnership. I also recognize the unique societal expectations and pressures that men often encounter, and I provide a safe space for men to explore their emotions, address concerns related to masculinity, and develop healthy coping strategies.

In-network insurances

Craig Simmons, LPC has 200+ in-network plans.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
