About Mekea

Mekea Simon is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas who emphasizes evidence-based, compassionate care. She guides clients toward greater self-compassion and practical coping skills while drawing on several proven therapeutic methods.

Background and approach

Her work often addresses mood disorders, self-esteem struggles, anxiety, and ADHD-related challenges, and she helps people navigate life transitions and social isolation. Using a person-centered stance, Mekea creates an environment where clients can explore their feelings and values without judgement.

She blends approaches such as cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness to build tools for managing panic, depressive symptoms, and workplace or relationship stress. Her aim is to help clients reconnect with purpose, strengthen communication skills, and develop routines that support emotional resilience.

With three years of clinical experience, Mekea focuses on tailoring treatment to each person’s situation and goals. She prioritizes culturally responsive care and works collaboratively to identify coping strategies, improve self-understanding, and reduce the impact of trauma, grief, anger, and other life challenges.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and take committed action toward a meaningful life while learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and mood-related problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and transforming emotional responses to improve self-connection and interpersonal interactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative work Mekea offers; she partners with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors methods from ACT, CBT, EFT, or complementary modalities to fit the situation. This process helps determine which strategies will be most helpful for coping, emotion regulation, and building resilience.

Online therapy with Mekea is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain continuity during transitions. These options support flexibility in scheduling and communication style, allowing clients to engage in ongoing work on stress, ADHD-related challenges, mood concerns, and relationship or workplace issues from where they are.
