About Aisha

Aisha Simons is an LPC with 20 years of clinical experience working with people across Georgia and beyond. She draws on long experience helping clients manage anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship concerns while attending closely to multicultural context and social anxiety.

Background and approach

Her background includes focused work on drug and alcohol addiction as well as trauma, grief, and identity-related issues within LGBTQ communities. Her practice emphasizes a compassionate, client-centered stance that honors each person’s history and cultural perspective.

Aisha blends practical skills with support for emotional processing, helping clients build coping strategies, strengthen self-esteem, and navigate life transitions. She brings patience and respect to collaborative work, guiding clients toward resilience and clearer priorities while tailoring interventions to individual goals and preferences.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and meeting clients where they are; it helps people explore their values and build self-directed change through a supportive therapeutic relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by teaching practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and social phobia. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can be useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, preferences, and which methods feel most useful, adjusting techniques over time to match progress and changing needs. This shared decision-making helps tailor care to what matters most to the client.

Online therapy with Aisha is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make scheduling easier for busy lives and for those living outside Georgia. These options provide flexibility in how people engage, allowing practical skill work, coaching, and supportive conversations to continue across distance and different daily rhythms.
