About Simon
Simon Anderson Schelling is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Indiana with four years of experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and LGBTQ+ related concerns. He also has additional focus areas that include autism and Asperger syndrome, gender dysphoria, kink and alternative sex culture, polyamory and non-monogamous relationships, mood disorders, self-harm, and sexuality.
He takes a straightforward, person-focused approach in sessions. Conversations center on practical coping skills, clearer thinking about choices, and reducing day-to-day overwhelm. Sessions are grounded in evidence-informed techniques rather than vague theory. Clients can expect direct conversation about what is and isn’t working in their lives.
Simon aims to be affirmative about sexual and gender diversity. He supports people exploring identity and relationship structures without judgment. He also works with adults processing neurodiversity-related concerns and the emotional impacts of mood and attention differences.
In practice he combines structured methods with plain talk. That can mean trying small behavioral changes, practicing ways to manage anxious moments, or clarifying relationship boundaries. He focuses on changes people can use between sessions to ease stress and improve functioning.
His background as a social worker shapes a practical focus on daily life, work, relationships, and community context. People who want clear, actionable steps and an LCSW perspective may find this approach helpful when deciding whether to request a first session.
BHow sessions work
How Simon uses evidence-informed approaches in online work
Simon draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions in straightforward ways. One common approach is problem-focused skill building, which teaches concrete strategies for managing anxiety and stress, such as breath work, behavioral experiments, and planning small changes in daily routines. These tools help reduce immediate distress and give people practical steps to try between sessions.He also incorporates methods that clarify thinking patterns and behavior links. This style looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact, and helps people test different responses to recurring problems. It can be useful for mood concerns, planning around attention differences, and sorting relationship tensions in non-traditional arrangements.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Simon will help determine which techniques fit a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That process is collaborative and adjusts over time as progress or challenges emerge.
