Hi, I'm Vickey.
Vickey Simmons-Hart, LPC, NCC · Founder & Clinical Director
I'm an Arizona native and a lifelong educator who found my way into this work through classrooms, child welfare and twenty years of sitting with people in their hardest moments. I built Inclusive Mental Wellness because too many people have been asked to choose between their identity and their healing. Here, you don't have to.
My work weaves together EMDR, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems and somatic approaches with the practical tools of CBT and DBT. It's integrated, not one-size-fits-all, and we go at the pace your nervous system can actually hold.
