Samantha Ryder

Hi there, I'm Samantha!

I work with individuals, families, and groups across the lifespan who are navigating grief and loss, trauma, relationship conflict, anxiety, depression, addiction, and major life transitions. My goal is to meet you where you are and collaborate with you to move toward where you want to be.

My focus

I work with diverse families, individuals, and groups across the lifespan. I am especially passionate about helping people work through major life transitions, new endings and beginnings, and find meaning in these experiences.

My approach

I use a collaborative approach that honors your self-agency and unique identities. Per your choice, I incorporate art and drama therapy to offer new perspectives on your stories and difficulties. I focus on helping you develop tools and behavioral skills that enable you to make changes within your control.
