Samantha is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and trained Wellness Coach who for 16 years has been supporting adolescents, adults, and couples in their quests to achieve greater self-awareness, healthier relationships, and more fulfilling lives. Along with her trainings in developmental trauma, relationship counseling, and coaching, Samantha works extensively with Brené Brown’s shame resilience curriculum as a Certified Daring Way Facilitator (CDWF). Samantha specializes in providing guidance and support for everyday living.

Samantha has always had a genuine interest in helping others navigate the many layers of life and often times uncharted emotional experiences that go with it; that combined with her curiosity about the thoughts and feelings that shape our experiences are what led her to become a therapist. Her approach in therapy is guided by her belief that each of us has an innate ability to become the healthiest and best version of ourselves, individually and in relationships. Samantha is committed to providing a therapeutic experience that is supportive, collaborative, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs and personality.

Together with you, Samantha will help you understand the underlying reasons behind the negative thinking and behavior patterns that have you feeling stuck. She focuses on core issues related to self-esteem, shame, guilt, perfectionism, and other barriers that keep you from living a more authentic and potentiated life. In a safe space, with a personable and direct approach, Samantha helps clients identify needs and wants, develop boundaries, improve communication and listening skills, and cultivate joy.
