Hello, my name is Peter Simon and I'm a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Washington state. For the past 18 years I've been helping people just like you determine where they're feeling stuck with some part of their health and wellness. Then, I partner with them to help get unstuck. I can help you, as well. I’ll hold your concerns with deep compassion. I’ll listen actively. I’ll work with you to address what’s most important to you. I will meet you where you are with dignity and respect, to connect with you. Then, we work together to tailor recovery and wellness practices, habits, and skills that best fit your needs. Through hope and transformation, you can heal, grow, and thrive.
I work with adults and couples. Using training in Solution-Focused, Cognitive Behavior, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive, and EMDR therapies, I provide treatment for depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and healing from trauma. I earned my Master of Arts in Psychology from Chapman University in 2008. I'm also currently in the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program (MMTCP) with lead teachers Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach. If you're interested, we can also explore how mindfulness can help you address your concerns.
I’d be honored to walk with you on your path of healing and wellness, and help you find the answers for which you’re searching. Most of the treatment I provide is relatively brief in duration, typically lasting 6 - 8 sessions. When appropriate, we can work together for longer, according to your benefits plan from your insurance provider. I look forward to meeting with you and working with you. Thanks for your time. - Pete Simon, LMCH
