Evidence-based approaches and online access

Simon combines evidence-based skills training with an identity-affirming, client-centered approach to support people through anxiety, depression, and questions related to LGBTQ+ identity. Skills training involves learning practical strategies for managing stress, regulating emotions, and building routines that can reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Client-centered, identity-affirming work focuses on exploring identity, values, and relationships in a respectful, nondirective way that validates each person’s experience and goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Simon collaborates with clients to identify what methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and he adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to access licensed professionals from home, allow for continuity when life is busy or when in-person visits are not feasible, and provide multiple ways to engage so clients can choose what works best for them.
