Hello,

My name is Cheryl Simms Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Substance Abuse Practitioner. I am thrilled to have you here! I am all about embracing self care transforming into the best version of yourself. Get ready to shine.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. My experience includes college counseling, community mental health, and private practice, where I’ve worked with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.

I believe therapy works best when you can feel comfortable being fully yourself. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I want therapy to feel like a space where you feel genuinely heard and understood—not judged or talked down to. Whether you’re working through something that’s been weighing on you for years or navigating a new season of life, I’m here to meet you where you are and help you move toward the life you want.

Many of the young people I work with come to me feeling trapped. It's as if the weight of what they're carrying is too heavy to put into words, and they're not sure anyone will understand. Anxiety and depression can make the world feel impossibly small, and for some, those feelings have led to self-harm or thoughts of suicide. I specialize in working with teens and young people, though I welcome clients of all ages — because feeling stuck doesn't come with an age limit.
