About Ammarritta

Ammarritta Simpson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and grief. She approaches each person with respect and a calm, direct style. Her manner is warm and interactive, focused on what the client needs right now.

She draws on practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the client's perspective and build trust.

Background and approach

When trauma is present she may include EMDR techniques as part of processing difficult memories. Sessions are collaborative. She listens first, then helps set small, achievable goals.

Conversations are tailored to daily life - sleep, routines, work, parenting stress, and coping skills are common topics. The focus is on real steps clients can try between sessions. With six years of clinical experience, Ammarritta has worked with people facing mood disorders, substance concerns, post-traumatic stress, and relationship strain.

She avoids stigma and uses straightforward language so clients understand the plan and feel heard. People seeking help can expect a practical, compassionate approach. Ammarritta supports decision-making, emotional regulation, and skill-building while adjusting methods to each person’s needs.

Approach-focused online therapy options

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room. The therapist follows each person's concerns, reflects what they say, and helps them find their own solutions. This approach helps when someone needs validation, clearer priorities, or support making decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. It uses concrete exercises and homework to change patterns that worsen anxiety, depression, or ADHD-related struggles. Clients learn skills to shift unhelpful thinking and improve daily routines.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. It can help people manage strong emotions, reduce impulsive reactions, and improve communication under stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what methods seem likely to help. Together they check progress and adjust the plan as needed so therapy stays relevant.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is useful for full conversations and teaching skills. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a quicker check-in. Chat or text messaging can help with short updates, timely coaching, or people who prefer typing. These options aim to make care more flexible and easier to use alongside work, school, or caregiving.
