Feeling the need to talk about what matters to you? Life's transitions, stressors, worries, and fears are on everybody's mind. In session, we focus on renewing, restoring, and reviving the most important person...you. I am strong in the areas of increasing your ability to become self-aware and more confident. Through therapy we can explore areas of your life that help you to build a deeper understanding of self. This will lead to better problem-solving skills and being able to find ways to restore yourself. I like to deal with your concerns and let you guide us on where we need to go in therapy. I am open and ready to work with you in a focused, yet gentle way.
I inspire people of color to embrace who they are and be more confident in themselves. I embrace all and help you understand that your inner healing helps in dealing with everyday stressors. Let's start reviving.
At The Listening Room, we provide structured, goal-oriented therapy for individuals, families, and court-ordered referrals. Our approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), family-based interventions, and individual counseling to address a range of concerns—including anxiety, stress, relational issues, and behavioral challenges.
Sessions are focused and collaborative, with most clients beginning to report noticeable progress within 6–7 sessions. Whether you’re navigating personal challenges, family conflict, or mandated treatment, we offer a professional, supportive space where growth and healing can take place.
For those interested in in-person sessions, these are available by appointment only. Before meeting in person, we first conduct three initial assessments to understand your needs and develop a tailored treatment plan—ensuring your time with us is purposeful and productive.
To make therapy more accessible, we’ve partnered with Grow Therapy, a trusted platform that manages insurance billing and referrals. While The Listening Room LLC is independently owned and operated, Grow Therapy helps streamline access to care by handling the administrative side—so we can focus on delivering quality mental health services and truly listening to you.

Hello, I'm Sam, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Supervisor and military retiree with a Master’s from Fayetteville State University. I have over 10 years of experience as an independent clinician, helping adults navigate career stress, burnout, financial challenges, and relationship issues. My goal is to empower clients to confront life’s obstacles head-on and grow into the best versions of themselves through practical, compassionate, and results-driven therapy.
I am an LCSW who has been a practicing social worker for 14 years in the medical and community settings. My social work background includes foster care, child welfare, adoption, juvenile justice system, medical social work, case management, and individual, family, and couples therapy. I work with diverse populations and backgrounds. I also have experience working with children with varying behaviors and mental health diagnoses. Throughout my career, I have actively pursued an expansion of knowledge and community resources and an increased understanding of clinical and medical social work. I have an outstanding ability to motivate others, advocate for clients and families, provide emotional support and counseling, and handle crises.
If you’ve spent your life holding the line — for your family, your community, your country — you know what it means to keep showing up even when it costs you. Whether you wear a uniform, lead from behind the scenes, or simply hold things together for everyone else, the weight you carry is real.
We live in a world that feels divided. Every headline, every conversation, can become a reminder of how far apart people seem. For many trauma survivors — and especially for first responders, police officers, firefighters, and paramedics — this division can deepen old wounds. The noise, the criticism, the lack of understanding from those who’ve never walked in your shoes can leave you feeling unseen and disconnected.
Therapy shouldn’t be another place where you feel judged or misunderstood. My work is grounded in respect — for who you are, what you believe, and what you’ve endured. I work with people from all political backgrounds and walks of life who’ve faced trauma, burnout, and the invisible injuries that come from witnessing too much for too long.
Through gentle, evidence-based approaches like Brainspotting, we create space for your body and mind to release what’s been stored — without forcing words or reliving trauma. You don’t have to choose a side to heal. You don’t have to explain why you’re tired, angry, or numb. You just have to show up as you are.
Healing is not weakness. It’s strength. It’s the courage to reclaim your peace, even in a world that keeps asking you to stay in survival mode. You’ve served others long enough. Now, it’s time to come home to yourself.

Online counseling is fairly new and I've found it to be really effective for various issues. My counseling style is pretty laid back. I have been described as supportive, encouraging, caring and compassionate with a good sense of humor. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles. I'm here to assist you in sorting through the things that are most difficult for you. I allow a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgement. I am happy that you have decided to take the first step by reaching out for help.
I view my work as a therapist through a multicultural lens, and I customize my approach depending on the unique needs of every individual I work with. Many people have told me they’ve been frustrated by therapists in the past who sat quietly and provided very little feedback. In response, I’ve developed a forthright, solutions-oriented style of engaging with my clients that encourages them to set goals for themselves and empowers them to work toward them. I also have experience working with clients who prefer a softer, less structured approach, so I can customize the therapy experience to each person.
