More about Samantha

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. My work centers on helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and self-esteem concerns. I'm particularly skilled in addressing parenting challenges and supporting parents as they navigate the complexities of raising children.

I specialize in working with social anxiety, phobias, panic disorder, and posttraumatic stress. I also help clients explore questions of life purpose and meaning, creating space for deeper reflection and growth.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and a genuine commitment to meeting you where you are. I believe in creating a therapeutic environment that feels safe, respectful, and aligned with your values. I'm honored to walk alongside you as you work toward healing and positive change.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a 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. Starting at $65 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.
