Enrique Simmons , LPC, MD, LCPC

Enrique Simmons is a licensed mental health counselor with 13 years of experience supporting adults from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, bipolar disorder, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting difficulties, life transitions, and ADHD. His practice emphasizes practical skill-building and personalized strategies to help clients improve daily functioning and manage symptoms more effectively.

He practices from an integrative perspective, tailoring interventions to each person's needs rather than adhering to a single doctrine. That approach allows him to draw on a range of evidence-based techniques and to adapt methods in the moment during sessions. Enrique guides clients in developing routines, practicing new skills, and applying coping tools between appointments so progress continues outside the therapy room.

Clients who work with Enrique can expect a collaborative process that includes development of a treatment plan - a roadmap of goals, objectives, and interventions - followed by skills training such as education, role-play, problem solving, communication practice, and self-assessment. Typical sessions are 45 minutes long and often include homework to reinforce learning and promote lasting change. Enrique holds the credentials LPC, MD, and LCPC - LPC stands for Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC stands for Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and MD denotes a medical degree - and brings a practical, supportive focus to helping people become more effective in their lives.

Integrative Approaches and Online Therapy Options

Enrique Simmons uses an integrative approach that combines techniques to meet each client's unique needs. Integrative therapy means selecting evidence-based methods that best fit the person in front of him and adapting those methods during sessions to address mood, behavior, and relationship concerns.

He also emphasizes skills-based interventions that focus on practical tools - education about symptoms, role-play to practice new responses, structured problem solving, communication training, and self-assessment exercises. These strategies aim to improve day-to-day functioning and help clients build routines that support long-term change.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Enrique works with clients to identify their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and together they determine which therapeutic techniques to prioritize. Licensed professionals and therapists tailor the plan over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so clients can access care in the format that fits their schedule and comfort level. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and practice new skills between sessions.
