Hugh Simmons, LCSW

At Hugh Simmons, LCSW, we believe that everyone deserves a supportive and non-judgmental space to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. As a licensed clinical social worker with advanced training in Gestalt, Family Systems, and Psychoanalytic theory and practice, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals, relationships, and families find healing and growth.

Our Services

We offer a range of services designed to meet the unique needs of our clients. Our individual therapy services focus on empowering individuals to find lasting change and growth, whether they are seeking support for depression, anxiety, or transitioning life events. Our relationship therapy services help couples, families, and groups build stronger, more fulfilling relationships, while our group therapy services provide a sense of community and support for those seeking connection and healing.

Individual Therapy

Our individual therapy services are tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. We begin with a psychoanalytic approach, incorporating elements of family systems, cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, and gestalt therapies to create a personalized plan for growth and change. Our goal is to help clients become the best version of themselves, working together to explore their life as it truly is and making lasting changes.

Relationship Therapy

Our relationship therapy services are designed to help couples, families, and groups build stronger, more fulfilling relationships. In our safe and non-judgmental space, we work with each individual to understand their role in the relationship and how they can make changes to create a more harmonious and loving environment. We focus on improving communication skills, empathy, self-awareness, and power adjustments to create a more balanced and equitable relationship.

Group Therapy

Our group therapy services provide a powerful tool for change, offering a sense of community, self, and hope for those seeking connection and support. We have run a variety of groups, including divorce support groups, relationship groups, gay men's groups, and teen groups, and have seen the transformative power of group therapy time and time again. Whether you're seeking support for persistent anxiety, feelings of isolation, or struggles with relationships, our group therapy services can provide a supportive and understanding space to explore your challenges and find healing.
