Hi there! I’m SaMika. Many people see therapy as a one-sided conversation in which the “expert” talks to you and tells you what to do. What is the joy in that? I find joy in working with other experts to create solutions to great change- and guess what? You are the expert on YOU. I believe one of the bravest things someone can do is work to understand their own story. Whether it is healing from the past, managing the present or preparing for the future; with a collaborative, holistic approach, I want to help you achieve whatever life changes you desire to live the life you feel you deserve. Seeking a therapist can be a bit intimidating, but you have already taken the first step! I hope you will take a moment, reach out and see how I can help. Let’s work together!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I provide a safe space with a collaborative approach. I love to integrate talk therapy, art, mindfulness practices and yoga to strengthen one's health and wellness holistically.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
A few of the techniques I use include are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused, Dialectical Behavioral Techniques and Behaviorism. I am also a Certified KORU Mindfulness Instructor as well as Certified Yoga Instructor!
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
We all are a sum of our experiences, so any time with me is a NO JUDGEMENT ZONE. I enjoy working with children, teens, adults and families, helping them find a sense of understanding and peace within themselves and their relationships.
