Simone Lampkin, LPC

Simone Lampkin is a Licensed Professional Counselor with seven years of experience helping people facing addiction, anger, and self-esteem challenges. She holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and practices in Tennessee. Simone meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps toward better daily functioning and confidence.

Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She listens first, then helps set clear goals. Sessions emphasize small, achievable changes that fit a person’s life. Simone encourages people to try strategies between sessions so progress carries into real situations.

Simone often uses cognitive behavioral approaches to identify unhelpful thoughts and shift behavior. She also draws on client-centered principles to make sessions feel respectful and focused on each person’s values. Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and needs help finding internal reasons to change.

Typical concerns she supports include addictions, LGBTQ issues, anger, and building self-worth. She also addresses related topics like adoption and foster care, body image, communication problems, forgiveness, life purpose, multicultural concerns, self-love, and young adult issues.

People can expect direct but compassionate conversations. Simone works with clients to create a realistic plan and measures progress along the way. Her approach aims to build skills that people can use outside of session to manage emotions and improve relationships.

How Simone’s Approaches Work Online

Simone commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice patterns of thought that lead to unhelpful behaviors and then practice new strategies. CBT is useful for issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, and changing habits related to addiction.

She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s perspective and choices. This approach creates space for clients to set goals that matter to them while the therapist follows their lead and offers support.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Simone will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and make adjustments as progress is tracked.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which lets people choose what fits their schedule. Video is good for visual cues and a deeper conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These formats aim to make consistent care easier to fit into daily life.
