LPC, 10 years of experience
As a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in trauma-related treatment, I bring extensive expertise to helping individuals who may feel stuck and despondent at first. Through therapy, I guide them toward expressing and embodying optimism. I customize my therapeutic approaches to address your unique needs, ensuring a tailored journey toward healing and growth. If you are feeling unsure, overwhelmed, anxious or depressed; now is the time to begin your journey to recovery.
During our initial session, we'll begin with brief introductions to establish a comfortable and open atmosphere. Following introductions, our focus will shift to a comprehensive exploration of the specific challenges you are currently facing. This detailed discussion will serve as the foundation for crafting a personalized plan designed to address your unique needs and goals. The subsequent sessions will then provide the structured space for us to collaboratively work through this plan, fostering your journey toward growth and positive change.
With nearly two decades of experience, my professional focus has centered on working with adolescents, young adults, and survivors of traumatic experiences. Over the last ten years, my role as a therapist has evolved to emphasize the identification of root causes behind the challenges individuals face. I am dedicated to creating individualized plans tailored to each person's unique circumstances, ensuring that our interventions lead to measurable progress. My commitment extends to providing unwavering support as clients navigate their path toward recovery. Through this extensive experience, I've developed a nuanced understanding of the complexities surrounding trauma and the developmental stages of adolescence and young adulthood. I am enthusiastic about continuing to contribute to the well-being and growth of those I have the privilege to work with.
I look forward to supporting those who are ready to make the first step toward living their best life. To them I say, "You can experience recovery, healing, and optimal wellness. Traumatic experiences and difficult ‘life changes’, may cause you to feel out of control or helpless. Be assured, there is hope!"
My choice to use CBT with clients stems from its evidence-based foundation, practical and goal-oriented nature, adaptability to different concerns, and capacity to empower clients to take an active role in their healing journey. CBT is known for its practical and goal-oriented focus. It allows clients to identify and modify dysfunctional thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to their challenges. This goal-directed nature aligns with many clients' preferences for tangible strategies and solutions, fostering a sense of agency and empowerment in the therapeutic process.

Samantha Williams is amazing. She naturally has a very warm spirit and is easy to talk to. Our sessions are typically filled with laughter as well as moments in which she challenges my thoughts in an honest and genuine manner. I am very blessed to have her as a Therapist. :)

I really enjoyed my experience with Sam. She provided a relaxing and comfortable setting that made it easier for me to share past experiences that were difficult to discuss. Her warm energy was incredibly inviting, and I found this session to be both productive and supportive.
