I’m Amanda, and I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a place where they can show up exactly as they are. I bring warmth, authenticity, and even a bit of humor into the room when it feels right. I want you to feel genuinely seen—not judged—and supported in whatever you’re working through.
I’ve been in the counseling field for over 15 years and hold a PhD in Counselor Education from the University of Tennessee. My experience ranges from private practice and telehealth to correctional mental health, hospitals, and leadership roles in community programs. A. Simms Resume copy
I work with adults experiencing mood challenges, anxiety, identity concerns, life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ experiences, as well as individuals who are justice-involved or adjusting to major life changes. My approach integrates CBT, ACT, and Reality Therapy, giving us room to explore both deeper patterns and practical skills.
Clients describe me as encouraging, steady, and real—someone who helps them feel grounded and capable while taking meaningful steps toward a more balanced and authentic life.
I believe in doing hard things—just not alone. With the right support, the game changes entirely. That’s why I bring Christian values into therapy—not as a rulebook, but as a foundation for becoming who you really want to be. So whether you're struggling with addiction, relationship issues, or life just not feeling as good as it used to, you don't have to figure it out by yourself. I'll be that support for you.
I have been a therapist for 10+ years. I received my Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Syracuse University. I have specialized training for trauma, anxiety, and attachment, depression, family systems, addiction, and perinatal and postpartum. My range of experience includes residential treatment programs for troubled teens, intensive outpatient, and community mental health. I love working with all ages.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Salt Lake City, UT
Finding couples therapists in Salt Lake City starts with understanding what you want to work on together. Couples therapy may support partners navigating communication concerns, recurring conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples care, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their bios.
In Salt Lake City, the right fit often depends on both clinical experience and practical details. You may want a therapist with an office near downtown, Sugar House, or the University of Utah area, or you may prefer virtual marriage counseling if it works better for both schedules. Since couples therapy requires one therapist who fits both partners, compare appointment times, session structure, and whether a brief phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist profiles can also help you understand how each therapist works with couples before you book.
Couples therapy in Salt Lake City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and filter by virtual or in-person care. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you are ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
