Simone Phillips, LCSW

Simone Phillips is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Nevada. She uses practical therapy methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. Her work is straightforward and focused on helping people find clearer ways to cope and move forward.

Simone draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness to teach emotion regulation and present-moment skills. Sessions blend skill-building with time to talk through personal history when that helps make sense of current struggles.

People come to her for a range of concerns, including attachment and abandonment worries, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, and the effects of infidelity or domestic violence. Simone also supports those dealing with guilt, shame, emptiness, impulsivity, and family conflict. She focuses on practical steps that fit into daily life.

With three years of practice, Simone balances structured techniques and compassionate listening. She encourages small, testable changes rather than big promises. Treatment plans are tailored to each person's goals and circumstances.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Simone works with adults who want clear tools and steady support while navigating life changes and healing from difficult experiences.

Using CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness Online

Simone often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change patterns of thinking that feed anxiety or low mood. CBT focuses on practical steps and experiments you can try between sessions to test new ways of responding to problems.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT-based strategies can help when feelings feel overwhelming or relationships keep repeating painful patterns. Mindfulness techniques are used alongside these approaches to increase awareness of the present moment and reduce reactive responses.

Choosing an approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk through your goals and preferences and recommend methods that fit your needs. Plans are adjusted over time so the work stays useful and relevant.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets you work face-to-face from different locations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat or text are handy for short check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and make regular work on goals more achievable.
