Inclusive Mental Wellness, LLC

Somewhere along the way, you became the one who holds everything together. The competent one. The strong one. And it's costing you more than anyone knows. I'm Vickey Simmons-Hart, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor in Arizona. I work with Black women, LGBTQIA+ clients, and high-functioning professionals carrying trauma that doesn't show up on the outside — the kind you've learned to work around rather than through. My path here ran through higher education counseling and child welfare, which taught me that healing rarely happens in isolation from the systems people are surviving. That perspective shapes how I practice. I use EMDR, Brainspotting, IFS, and somatic work — not as a menu of techniques, but as ways of reaching what talking alone hasn't touched. In our work, you don't have to perform being okay. We move at your pace, we honor what your survival strategies have done for you, and we make room for the parts of you that haven't had anywhere to go. If you're ready to stop managing and start healing, I'd be glad to hear from you.
