Uplift, Empower, and Inspire

Simone Harris, MSW, LICSW

is a wife, mother, therapist, mentor, program director, and facilitator. She earned her Master’s in Social Work from the University of Chicago and is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. Simone has dedicated her career to helping children, families, and adults recognize their strengths and develop healthy coping skills for life’s challenges.

​

Her work began with supporting youth and adults who had survived sexual assault and abuse. Seeing the deep impact of trauma on mental health sparked her passion for providing compassionate care and guiding others toward healing. After serving with DC Government and working as a School Social Worker, Simone launched Youth Empowered Today, a program that equipped youth to discover their strengths, advocate for themselves, and overcome adversity. In 2023, she achieved her dream of opening a private practice in Washington, DC.

Today, Simone remains devoted to helping children, teens, and adults build resilience and navigate anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem with confidence and hope.
