I'm Rashaun Sims, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 7 years of experience in the helping field. My passion is assisting individuals, couples, and families in overcoming a wide range of challenges, from depression and anxiety to trauma, substance abuse, and marital issues. I understand that each person's journey is unique, which is why I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore your concerns together. Using evidence-based therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), I tailor our sessions to your specific needs and goals. My therapy style is rooted in reality and focused on finding practical solutions. You can count on me to bring empathy, compassion, and a keen listening ear to our work together. Life's challenges may feel daunting now, but with the right guidance and support, you can enhance your mental and emotional well-being. Let's embark on this journey of transformation together, empowering you to lead a more satisfying life filled with resilience and positivity.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, I create a warm and welcoming space where you can share what has brought you to therapy. This conversation helps me understand your background and history while listening with empathy and care. Together, we’ll begin to craft a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your individual needs and goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a therapist, my strengths lie in fostering a profound sense of empathy, building genuine rapport, and actively listening to your unique experiences and concerns. My reliability ensures consistent support throughout your therapeutic journey, while authenticity underpins our interactions, creating an environment where you can be your true self without judgment. I am dedicated to cultivating a safe and nurturing space that encourages open dialogue, personal growth, and emotional healing.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Attachment-based
“In my practice, I utilize attachment-based therapy to help clients explore their early childhood experiences and attachment styles. By understanding these foundational relationships, we can uncover patterns that influence how they connect with themselves and others in the present.”
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
"With cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), I assist clients in identifying negative thought and behavior patterns, along with the underlying beliefs and systems that drive them. I provide clients with self-monitoring tools to use between sessions, empowering them to work towards their therapeutic goals."
EMDR
"I employ Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients reprocess traumatic memories through bilateral stimulation. This technique supports clients in overcoming past trauma and moving towards healing."
Motivational Interviewing
I use Motivational Interviewing to guide clients through the stages of change, helping them overcome barriers and boost their motivation. This approach facilitates a collaborative exploration of their goals and challenges, enhancing their readiness for change.
Psychodynamic
I use psychodynamic therapy to help clients uncover unconscious patterns and unresolved conflicts from their past. By bringing these issues to light, clients can gain deeper self-awareness and achieve emotional healing.
