Getting to know Joel Simon

I will let people with whom I have worked over the years tell you about me: "Joel focuses on the issues at hand because he listens very intently. He doesn't get into any psychobabble and provides clear insight to moving forward. Joel encouraged positive takeaways from all sessions." "He’s attentive, professional, personable, and kind." "We were able as a family to have Joel’s ear as an outside observer. He could extract the most important takeaways from all that we were working on together and put them into concrete terms. It helped bring clarity and structure to all the things we were trying to do. Having appointments with Joel also helped us to be accountable for the work. Therapy is work. We have to consciously make changes to see improvements... Joel helped us stay accountable." When I came to see Joel, I was in a bad place—personally and professionally. I was dealing with unresolved grief, and that was impacting my habits and behaviors. After a few short sessions with Joel, I started the road back to being the person who I believe myself to be. It has been about six months since my first session with Joel—I am now working a good job, have returned to a hobby that I love, and just completed my first semester of a degree program toward a more rewarding profession (and earned a 4.0 GPA!). Joel helped me realize that I had the ability to determine my own course in life and helped me develop positive habits to achieve my goals. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the Wurzweiler School of Social Work at Yeshiva University, which informs my approach to therapy and client care.

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.
