Thank you for stopping by my page! What you will experience as my client will always be based upon the following: professionalism, care, and experience. I consider effective mental health treatment to be a life-changing experience and it is my goal as your therapist to support you 100% in reaching your goals. My philosophy is this: "I'll always help if you'll always try." I have worked with a wide variety of people, and find that almost all of us can connect as fellow humans. I am currently licensed in North Carolina, West Virginia, Florida, Tennessee, and California, and make my home in beautiful Southern Oregon.
PLEASE NOTE THAT I HAVE A FULL-TIME PRACTICE OUTSIDE OF GROW AND IF YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT CHOICE IS MADE FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY OR 2-3 DAYS AWAY, I WILL LIKELY HAVE TO MOVE IT OUT SEVERAL DAYS. IF YOUR NEED IS MORE EMERGENT, THEN PLEASE ACCESS CARE LOCALLY OR YOU MAY FIND ANOTHER THERAPIST ON GROW THERAPY THAT IS AVAILABLE SOONER. I TRY TO BALANCE HELPING AS MANY AS I CAN WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE CARE. THANK YOU, SAM

Thank you for reviewing my profile. I am originally a midwest farm gal with a little city pazzaz having lived in the Chicagoland area for many years. Although I am now a CA resident, my midwest roots are grounding to me. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California. I provide counseling services via telehealth and on Tuesday's have in-person sessions available to those who live locally. On days I am off and not working, I enjoy reading, riding the motorcyle with my husband, spending time with my adult kids, traveling, taking walks with our pet dog, Buddy, and working out at the gym. I am divorced, have lost a pet I dearly cherished, lost my father, and work hard to get my PhD! I am a huge advocate of self-care because that is what helped me keep taking one step forward on difficult days. Take courage and know that I, too, have not been without struggles, but encourage you to know there is hope everyday!

As a licensed clinical social worker, I have treated children and young adults from ages 3-25 with a range of concerns, from anxiety, ADHD, Autism, depression, learning disabilities, TBI, and much more. I love to learn, laugh and play with my clients as I create a space where they know that no matter what they will be met with transparency, authenticity, safety and unconditional care and positive regard. Being a kid can be a really lonely part of life and I aim to help them develop coping skills, social skills and self-esteem to help them accept support and fortify relationships. With experience as a school social worker and an intensive outpatient program therapist, I am confident we can find a solution.
If you are interersted in supplemental group therapy for yourself or your child please let me know. Group therapy is a very effective treatment for children and young adults.
