Getting to know Simone Edwards
Have you ever felt afraid to fail? For high achievers, failure doesn't feel like an option—so instead of risking it, you freeze. From the outside, you look like you have it all together. Inside, you're carrying stress, anxiety, and exhaustion no one sees. The truth is, anxiety and high achievement often travel together. For 25+ years as a Licensed Professional Counselor—doctoral therapist, school counselor, and coach—I've helped students, athletes, parents, and professionals break this cycle. I also offer clinical supervision for counselors. Reaching out is the hardest step—and you've found your way here. Let's take it together.
I'm Dr. Simoné Edwards, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a doctorate in Sport & Athletic Management and 25+ years of counseling experience. I specialize in school-aged children, teens, athletes, and young adults facing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My strength? Building trust and creating a safe space where you can truly be yourself.
The techniques we'll use in session go far beyond the therapy room—they're tools for every private battle you're facing. Let's start with the stress, anxiety, or depression weighing on you, and reconnect you with your purpose and the people and things you love. You've already taken the first step by being here. Book a session today—let's get started!
