I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and positive change. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to work through life's challenges. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients explore the connections between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while building on the strengths they already possess. For those open to it, I also offer faith-based support, honoring the role that Christian values and spirituality can play in healing.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker–Certified (LCSW-C) with extensive experience working in inpatient, group, individual, and couples therapy settings. My background has given me a deep understanding of how people heal both in crisis and in everyday life. In addition to my clinical training, I’m also a certified yoga instructor, which informs my appreciation for the mind-body connection. As a mother, I bring empathy, real-world perspective, and a grounded approach to the challenges my clients face. Together, these experiences shape the holistic, compassionate, and active way I show up in the therapy room.

Dr. Simone Blanchard

Therapist

Virtual • Greenbelt, MD


I’m Dr. Simone Blanchard, an international psychologist and the creator of the InnerLightT Model.

My work integrates psychology, energy awareness, and reflective practices to support individuals and communities through change, uncertainty, and transition. Over time, I observed that many people struggle not because they lack motivation or discipline, but because they lack clarity about what is happening internally—in their thoughts, emotions, and habitual behaviors.

InnerLightTM was developed to provide that clarity.
