Getting to know Simone Yancy
Simone Yancy is a proud Licensed Master Social Worker with over a decade of experience working with children, adolescents, and their families, including support for gambling and sports betting addiction. Since 2008, she has worked in the Detroit metropolitan area treating children in counseling settings at schools and in their homes, with a career that has included assessing and conducting psychological testing for students, working with special education students, conducting health screenings, and providing mental and medical health education for students and families. She holds a Master of Arts in Social Work as well as a Certificate in Marital and Family Therapy. In addition to her work with children and families, Simone has also served as a Medical Social Worker, providing support services and case management resources for people of all ages, races, and backgrounds. She considers it a privilege to support those in need and to witness growth and even triumph in the hard spaces of life, whether life transitions or navigating tragedies and loss, and her work with children has taught her the value of safety and non-judgment, which she brings into a safe, empathic environment for treating a wide variety of concerns and daily stressors. Whatever a client's age or background, whether they are experiencing sadness, loss, anxiety, or recovery from trauma, Simone is honored to support them and work toward healing, focusing on their strengths as a foundation for growth.
