Getting to know Jamie Simmons

Hi there, I'm Jamie! I'm Jamie Simmons, licensed in California, License No. LMFT 110655. Therapy often involves working together to identify and change habits, thoughts, actions, and relationship patterns that may hold you back. We may also discover current issues trace back to old wounds that need processing and healing, fostering greater freedom in the here and now. I hold a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the University of Santa Monica, which deeply informs my approach to healing and growth. My approach I work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, Mindfulness Techniques, and other relevant tools to assist you in reaching your goals. I believe in offering many practical tools and practices to benefit you. My focus I am an out gay therapist, which some clients find clinically helpful. I enjoy working with any adult and have a diverse caseload. Common areas include anxiety, depression, codependency, setting boundaries, relationship issues, and recovery from relational trauma. I help clients update adaptive relational skills that were essential in childhood but need revision to fit adult wisdom and capability. My communication style I invite you to show up as you are. I aim to hold a heart-centered, unconditionally supportive space for you. Our connection is more important than any technique or theoretical approach and is the foundation of successful therapy. My journey to therapy Therapy is a second career for me. I worked in public relations and as a small business owner for over 20 years. Throughout, I was interested in self-help, spirituality, and my own healing and growth. I decided it was time to turn my passion for growth and healing into a career aligned with who I am.
