Welcome! I’m Simone, a Licensed Clinical Therapist at Key to Change Counseling Services, Corp., a Christian-based group practice dedicated to compassionate, culturally sensitive, and clinically excellent care. While my approach is rooted in kindness, grace, and empathy, I strive to create a welcoming, inclusive space where clients of all backgrounds and belief systems feel truly seen, safe, and free of judgment.
I specialize in helping individuals navigate: Anxiety, Depression, Relationship difficulties, Negative self-image, Trauma, Identity-related concerns, and Major life transitions
My therapeutic style centers your unique lived experiences by blending traditional talk therapy with cultural humility and holistic, creative practices (such as art, nature-based reflection, and mindfulness). I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work from Monmouth University and am a Trauma-Informed clinician with a background in crisis intervention, behavioral therapy, and hospital case management.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Simones’s therapeutic style is collaborative, structured, and goal oriented.
She creates a warm, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being open and honest, while also providing guidance and gentle challenge to support growth. Therapy is an active process, focused on helping clients better understand themselves and make meaningful changes in their lives.
In sessions, Simone helps clients:
• Identify patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behaviors
• Understand the underlying causes of stress or distress
• Develop practical coping strategies and tools
• Improve emotional regulation and communication skills
• Build confidence and healthier boundaries
Each session is tailored to the individual, with a balance of insight, skill-building, and accountability. Clients may be encouraged to reflect or practice strategies between sessions to reinforce progress.
This approach is a strong fit for individuals who are ready to actively engage in the process and work toward lasting change.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
The therapeutic process with Simone is intentional, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s needs.
The first session focuses on understanding your concerns, background, and goals for therapy. This is also an opportunity to ask questions and determine if the provider is a good fit for you.
Ongoing sessions are structured yet flexible. A typical session may include:
• A check-in on your current mood, stressors, or recent experiences
• Exploration of challenges, triggers, or patterns
• Identifying thoughts and behaviors that may be impacting your well-being
• Learning and practicing practical coping strategies
• Setting small, realistic goals to support progress between sessions
Therapy evolves over time as your needs and goals change. Simone works collaboratively with clients to track progress and adjust the approach as needed.
All sessions are conducted via secure telehealth, making it easier to stay consistent and engaged.
Clients who benefit most from this process are those who are open, motivated, and willing to actively participate both during and outside of sessions.
With consistency and the right support, meaningful and lasting change is possible.
