Since 2017, Lindsay Simineo has been working in public policy at federal, state, and local levels to further and promote the interests of behavioral health across Wyoming. During that time, Lindsay has worked on licensing standards, new certifications for professionals, criminal justice reform, mental health and telehealth parity, collaborative care, as well as working with vulnerable populations.

In 2022, Lindsay identified that more mental health organizations needed to be involved in the legislative process and for several reasons, did not have the capacity to be. It is through her determination to build statewide efforts, and the hard work of the Board of Directors that the Wyoming Behavioral Health Alliance came to be.

​

Lindsay has received recognition over the years, being the recipient of the 2020 American Counseling Association State Branch Award, the 2023 Wyoming Counseling Association award for Human Rights, and is a 2023 Alumni of Leadership Wyoming.

​

Lindsay holds a Bachelors of Social Work degree from the University of Wyoming, and a Masters of Arts in Counseling from Denver Seminary. She currently holds her professional counseling license and continues to work in private practice in Cheyenne. She has called Wyoming home most of her life and is happy to share Wyoming with her husband and two children.
