I’m Rashaun Sims, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over eight years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, or relationship issues, I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can explore your concerns and work toward meaningful change. I take a practical, insight-driven approach to therapy, tailoring each session to your needs using evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, EMDR, Attachment Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. My goal is to help you understand the deeper patterns shaping your thoughts, emotions, and relationships while equipping you with tools to break unhelpful cycles and move forward with confidence. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to take the next step toward emotional well-being, let’s start this journey together.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable sharing what has brought you to therapy. We’ll explore your background, current challenges, and what you hope to gain from therapy, all at a pace that feels right for you. I’ll listen with empathy and care, ensuring you feel heard and supported. Together, we’ll begin to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals. This session is about building trust, setting a foundation for our work together, and helping you take the first step toward healing and growth.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a therapist, my greatest strengths lie in my deep empathy, genuine connection, and ability to create a safe, supportive space for healing. I prioritize authenticity and active listening, ensuring you feel truly heard and understood. My reliability and consistency provide a strong foundation for our work together, offering steady support throughout your journey. I am committed to fostering open dialogue, personal growth, and emotional healing, helping you explore challenges with confidence and self-compassion. With a warm and nonjudgmental approach, I strive to empower you to navigate life’s obstacles and move toward lasting change.
