Hi there, I'm Samantha!

The first step toward therapy is showing up. Congratulations on already taking that step. I'm here to help you feel seen, heard, and supported throughout your therapeutic journey. I work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the lasting impact of trauma.

My focus

Do you find yourself feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by emotions you can't quite explain? I work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, mood disorders, and major life adjustments. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling isolated, exhausted, or unsure of how to move forward.

My approach

I use mindfulness, motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and a strengths-based approach to target your individualized goals. I believe collaboration is key to treatment, which is why I'm highly adaptable to your needs and value your input, values, and overarching goals.
