About Me
WELCOME! I am Naomi Simon, who is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Just to give you some background information on my life, I was born and raised in sunny South Florida. I graduated with my Bachelors’ in Psychology and soon after that I pursued my Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling at Florida International University. I did not stop there. I then pursued my licensure in Mental Health (which is a story I will I have to share with you during my sessions). During my time in school, I always knew, that for me, this was more than just a career to help people, but a calling. A calling for me to help people SEE and BECOME the better version of themselves.
Freedom-To-Grow Therapy
My private practice is called “Freedom-To-Grow Therapy”. The reason why I gave it that name is because I realized, that once someone realizes that they have the ability to overcome and become free, from whatever they are dealing with mentally, then they can grow and grow in life. I help people develop positive ways to deal with their emotions and help them change the way they think, so that they can change their behavior. I also became credentialed as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, where I utilize relaxation techniques and cognitive reframing, to help individuals cope and move past their trauma. My passion is simply to help others see that despite of what they may be going through, or have experienced in their lives, there is hope to move forward in life.
My Goals
My goal is for every one of my clients, to learn different ways to cope with their mental health issues. Teaching my clients strategies on how to change their ways of thinking and the way they react to problems that occur in their lives, is my strongest expertise. There are things that happens to people in their lives, that are beyond their control. Then there are things that occurs in their lives, that they do have control over. However, life isn’t just about dealing with the hand that it gives you. It’s about understanding, that in every circumstance, there is a way to recovery. Here at Freedom-To- Grow Therapy, your road to freedom, growth, and recovery starts here.
