Welcome to a space where you can grow - free of judgment, stigma and FULL of opportunity!!

I am a professional clinical counselor, with a supervision designation licensed in Ohio and Virginia with 10 years of experience working as a therapist and several years as a clinical supervisor.

My counseling style is warm , interactive, holistic and culturally inclusive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $60 to $90 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

Semone is a great listener and gives great advice. She's not afraid to pull any punches when needed. Has helped me through some really rough times, and we appreciate all she's doing for us.

Mar 24, 2020

Overall

Semone is very personable, easy to talk with and is an excellent listener. She is helping me to unpack the life events that have shaped me and she is helping me to find my voice which has been long silenced. I appreciate her professional expertise. She is the best!

Mar 10, 2020

Overall

Semone is sensitive to my concerns and encouraging in my fears. She sees me. Her support and feed back helps me process and take courage. She is the best!

Apr 30, 2019

Overall

I have had two sessions so far with Semone and have been delighted with each one. I feel very comfortable sharing with her. She is very good at listening and encouraging. She points out patterns and strengths that I have missed since I've lived it and can sometimes lack the perspective that an outside viewpoint can bring. She is very good at keeping me on point and each session feels productive. I come away with nuggets to focus on between our sessions. I like having these homework types of assignments that God and I can then dig deeper into during my daily prayer times. She is helping me learn to trust myself and God's leading in my life. I would highly recommend her!

She's wonderful! Much better than my secular inperson therapist! Very compassionate, patient, and understanding, and really trying to help me. Im going through an extremely rough time in my spiritual as well as physical life and emotional life right now. I think God sent me to her. God bless her.

I love working with Semone. We have been working with her for a few years now and she always makes time for us and is able to address any concerns we are having. I (and my husband when we have joint sessions) always feel better after a session with her. She is understanding, kind, funny, supportive, and wonderful.

Overall

Semone has been an incredible counselor. She listens well and responds thoughtfully. Her help in developing specific ways I can be caring well for myself, creating appropriate boundaries in relationships, and working to overcome self-defearing habits has been incredible.

L.U.·Oct 07, 2021

Overall

Ms. Danage is sick a gifted counselor! Though I see her online via video, her compassionate care doesn't seem to be at all hindered by not being in am in-person counseling situation. She has developed a practical plan to help me achieve some personal relationship-oriented relationship goals and I'm relating better to family and friends with her great insights. I do recommend her highly and with confidence that she provides a she space for me to be honest, real about my feelings and my failings, and I believe she would do the same for others.

L.U.·Apr 14, 2021

Overall

I want to start by saying this is my first experience with therapy and I couldn’t recommend it more. I attribute my experience to having an amazing person to walk with me on this journey and that is Semone. Semone has allowed a safe space for me to explore every feeling and thought I have without fear of being judged. She has also allowed me to see my feelings are valued and need to be heard most importantly by myself. I mean there are so many things I could go on and on about, but most importantly she provided me with a listening ear so I could talk through some emotions and a tool belt so I can fix somethings that weren’t serving me. I have had and continue to have a great experience and would definitely recommend working with her :)

S.H.·Mar 03, 2021

Overall

Semone is truly the best. I have been working with her for a few years, and every time we have a session I'm so thankful for her! She listens, understands, and is always there for me.

S.H.·Aug 21, 2020

Overall

Semone is an incredible therapist that I have had the privilege of working with for the past few years. She’s helped me through a lot of lows, and taught me how to better appreciate every moment in my life. I’ve learned how to approach my personal speed-bumps with empathy for myself, and a sense that I can be proactive in adjusting my life. She’s skilled, empathetic, clever, and above all else a compassionate ear when you need her. I’m very lucky to have been matched with her.

I love Semone. Don’t know how I would have survived without her these last few years. I mean that -literally

E.I.·Jul 24, 2020

Overall

Where can I begin with the amazing experience I have had with Semone Danage? Semone is not only the best counselor I have ever worked with but is a real person who can really connect with people. I have never noticed her “watching the clock” during our sessions which I believe are supposed to be 1/2 hour but we always go for an hour and sometimes more depending on what is being discussed. I had tried another counselor before finding Semone and as I mentioned above, have had many other counselors I have worked with in the past and Semone is by far the BEST and most effective. I hope this review does something for her in her line of work helping other people really work on things and to find happiness. Semone is an amazing counselor and a genuinely caring person who deserves 5 stars! THANK YOU SEMONE FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY!

H.A.·May 20, 2020

Overall

Semone cares for her clients. She was supportive before the pandemic, but has really leveled up her support during this difficult time. My family and I are grateful for her support and solution based guidance. I thank God I have Simone. ❤

Semone Danage is a warm, caring, competent professional counselor who has truly helped turn our marriage around and helped me to better manage significant depression personally. I couldn't have found a better match on my own. Highly recommend!

L.U.·Mar 05, 2020

Overall

I have really appreciated the sessions I have had both individually and as a couple with Semone. She really cares, speaks truth, and has developed a plan that we have great confidence will help us heal and experience all that God has created marriage to be for us. Her working with us is giving us a new chance in marriage - a fresh start. I’m so thankful!

Semone is nothing short of amazing. From our very first session, I felt a weight lifted from my shoulders. I finally had hope. Semone was able to make me start realizing my potential, my worth, and finding happiness where it had been lost. I look forward to my sessions with her because I come out of them with a renewed sense of purpose. I am happier and more confident with each session, becoming the person I knew I could be. And it's all with Semone's help and guidance. Thank you...that is not adequate...but thank you! 5 stars, 10 stars, all the stars I can give!

Overall

I have enjoyed how Semone has embraced me and helped me feel better about myself and what I am going through. She has a way of opening your eyes and your heart to what the real issues are. She is very warm in her approach but real, helping to get to the heart of the matter, not by pushing but by allowing you to reveal it to your self. She helps you uncover what you may not want to see but once you see it, she is right there with you to help you see it through. She has many ways to help, she listens to what you may need then offers many ways that may be beneficial. She listens to YOU and concentrates on YOU and what YOU may need which is most important! I am so thankful to have had her as my counselor!
