About Simone
Simone Hamilton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She focuses on practical ways to manage strong emotions, build self-worth, and navigate life changes. Her approach is grounded in listening first, then helping people find skills that fit their daily life.
Simone draws on a mix of evidence-based techniques to guide sessions. She uses person-centered listening to understand what matters most to each person. Cognitive-behavioral tools help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Background and approach
Mindfulness and dialectical skills are used for managing intense feelings and improving emotional balance. Her experience spans six years in schools, college counseling centers, community groups, church settings, and independent practice. That background shaped a flexible style that adapts to different needs.
Simone emphasizes respect, warmth, and practical problem solving in every session. Common concerns she addresses include grief, anger, low self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life transitions. She also supports people working on communication problems, loneliness, life purpose, and self-love.
Sessions aim to help people leave with small, doable steps they can try between meetings. Simone works collaboratively when setting goals and choosing strategies. She focuses on what the person wants to change and tailors the pace accordingly.
Her style is straightforward and supportive, with an emphasis on real-world coping skills that fit a busy life.

Evidence-based approaches for online care
Simone uses a few evidence-based techniques in her online work. Person-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship so clients can explore issues at their own pace. Cognitive-behavioral techniques help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical behavior changes that reduce anger and increase confidence. Mindfulness and dialectical skills teach emotion regulation and moment-to-moment awareness to manage intense feelings and reduce reactivity.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Simone will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped before. Together they try methods and adjust over time so the work fits the person's day-to-day life and needs.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or when writing helps organize thoughts. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, school, or family obligations.
