Lorey Simons, LPCC

Lorey Simons is an Ohio LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 12 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and related struggles such as sleep problems and self-esteem. Lorey uses client-centered work and other practical approaches to help people manage day-to-day problems and difficult transitions.

She lets the person set the pace in sessions and pays close attention to what matters most to them. That client-centered stance is combined with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when those tools fit the need. She often uses simple exercises like journaling and thought-challenging to reduce distressing thought patterns.

Lorey has a history of working with people impacted by traumatic events and the anxiety that can follow. She describes helping people learn skills so painful memories and panic symptoms interfere less with daily life. Sessions focus on usable strategies rather than only on talking about the past.

People also consult her about relationships and family-related stress, including blended family issues and co-parenting tensions. She helps clients sort out communication problems, commitment doubts, and the practical pressures of caregiving and life changes.

Her style is direct and practical. Expect collaborative goal-setting and clear homework tasks, such as journaling or behavioral experiments. That makes progress easier to track for someone juggling busy family responsibilities.
