Arielle Simpson, LMHC - Therapist in Florida

About Arielle

Arielle Simpson is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and challenges related to family and parenting. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, eating concerns, anger, self-esteem struggles, and bipolar-related difficulties. Arielle practices in Florida and brings 12 years of experience to her work.

Her approach is straightforward and flexible. Sessions are warm and supportive, and she adapts tools to fit each person’s needs.

Background and approach

She often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address patterns of thought and behavior. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and make meaningful changes. Arielle combines evidence-based methods with client-centered listening.

She uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change. Narrative therapy is another tool she draws on to help people reframe their stories and see new possibilities. She has experience working in homes and schools and has training that focuses on responding to distress and traumatic events across the lifespan.

That background informs how she supports people dealing with hard life events and ongoing stress. Arielle aims to meet people where they are. She works collaboratively to set goals, try practical strategies, and track progress.

The emphasis is on steady, manageable steps toward better coping and clearer priorities.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Arielle commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing them alongside practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines.

She also leans on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers on listening, empathy, and supporting the person’s own problem-solving. Together these approaches let her tailor sessions to each person’s situation, whether the focus is stress, grief, or family concerns. Finding the right approach is part of the process; she collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences and adjusts as work progresses.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and make it easier to keep appointments from home or work. The variety of ways to connect helps people maintain continuity of care while trying different tools and strategies with a licensed professional.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
