Hello, my name is Tyhesia Simpson, and I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas, D.C., and Maryland. I am deeply interested in and committed to helping people work through the complexities of life. So many things happen to us that are outside our control and impact how we view ourselves, the world, and the people around us. Sometimes, those situations cause scars that bandaid solutions do not seem to fix. I am here to help you navigate those situations and the scars left behind in a way that focuses on collaboration and healing. This journey is for YOU and about YOU. I hope you walk away from our time together understanding more about yourself and confidently using skills/tools to address your needs.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with introductions (I want to learn what makes you, you), and then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
In my four years of being a clinician, I have learned that being myself is one of the best ways to authentically build a therapeutic relationship with a client. Clients have told me that they feel as though they are talking to a friend who just has a clinical background. I pride myself on providing a safe space for you to let your walls down, have an impartial ear to listen to your needs, and be present in your journey toward healing.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Strength-Based
I use a strength-based treatment method to work with clients because this modality is centered around believing that a client can make changes in their lives. With open communication and encouragement, this modality helps clients identify what is most important to them and use that information along with their strengths to change problem areas in their lives. This approach prioritizes a client's independence, resilience, and ability to actively make choices to improve their well-being.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral therapy is a treatment modality aimed at helping clients understand the connection between thought patterns, feelings/emotions, and behavior and how these work together to impact their overall well-being. CBT helps clients examine how they interpret events and how those interpretations impact their feelings and behaviors. I find CBT to be extremely helpful in leading clients to change unhealthy ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving to improve their quality of life.
