Getting to know Simone Garrison

Hello! My name is Simone, and I'm an LCSW licensed in both Maryland and Virginia. I earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. I have over a decade of experience working with children, adults, couples, and military veterans.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I empower my clients to find their peace in the midst of chaos. I help my clients create techniques that work for their lifestyles to reduce symptoms of stress, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and more. I assist them with finding a balance between obligation and self-care. I support my clients in their journey of self-discovery and healing.

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.
