I’m a licensed therapist with over 18 years of experience helping adults navigate burnout, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I work with high-functioning individuals who often appear to have it together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck beneath the surface. Many of my clients are used to pushing through, taking care of others, and managing everything on their own—until it stops working. They come to me looking for more than just coping strategies. They want to understand what’s driving their patterns and experience real, lasting change. My approach integrates EMDR, parts work, and nervous system-focused therapy to help you move beyond surface-level solutions. Together, we work to reduce overwhelm, process unresolved experiences, and shift the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. The impact of this work is more than symptom relief. Clients often begin to feel calmer, more grounded, and clearer in their decisions. They develop a stronger sense of self, improved boundaries, and a greater ability to navigate stress without becoming overwhelmed. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and able to make meaningful progress at a pace that feels right for you. You don’t have to keep doing this alone—change is possible, and it can feel more sustainable than you might expect.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida, Oregon, Kansas (LSCSW), New Hampshire, and Texas. I received my Master's degree from Louisiana State University and have been practicing for 9 years. I help adults find ways to heal their anxiety and depression, help them become more self-aware, and to stop negative thinking, so they can become the best versions of themselves. I help adults ages 18+ struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, suicidal ideations, self-harm, grief/loss, and life transitions. I utilize a variety of treatment modalities such as CBT, CPT, DBT, ACT, Interpersonal, Narrative, Supportive, Compassionate, Grief, and various others depending on your needs. I help clients stay in the present moment (utilizing other techniques) as this can be very difficult to do in our busy lives today. I became a social worker because I want to help people feel better about themselves and their lives. I no longer wanted to be "just an employee" and work for a large organization. I wanted to use my strengths and abilities to help others because it would be challenging and rewarding. Therapy is a form of "self-care", and we will work together as a team to address your specific challenges, goals, and needs. I am dedicated, passionate, and caring. I also conduct emotional support animal evaluations in Florida, Texas, New Hampshire, Kansas, and Oregon.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for ten years now. You will always know yourself better than I can or will. From a philosophical and theoretical standpoint. I am overwhelming more of an attachment theorist, and have been known to use existentialism from time to time to help make sense of something. I guess the question that remains though is; can a butterfly flap it's wings in Brazil and cause a tornado in Kentucky, or are we all simply just products of our childhood and mirrors of our parents traumas? The duality of life. Attachment Theory vs. Chaos Theory. Both have value. I digress. My goal is to provide a petridish in which you can explore your self. Safe. Contained. Yet completely in your control. The paradox being, you likely already have what you need. I'll sit with you while you find it. I can give you my clinical opinion, or diagnosis, and recommendations along the way as well if you'd like that. I can just sit and listen. I can play devils advocate.

I am a therapist with over 10 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am passionate about supporting clients in becoming their best selves while addressing the obstacles that stand in their way. My approach is collaborative and client-centered—I believe you are in the driver’s seat of your own healing journey. Together, we’ll identify your goals and develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. My practice primarily draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), evidence-based methods that provide practical tools for managing emotions, improving relationships, and fostering personal growth. Whether you’re seeking relief from overwhelming emotions, healing from past experiences, or simply striving to live a more balanced life, therapy can be a powerful step forward. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel heard, empowered, and equipped to make meaningful change.

Vulnerability is the foundation of human interactions and relationships. Let me help you become comfortable with your vulnerabilities in a compassionate and non-judgmental therapeutic environment. Finding a sense of love and belonging can help us build relationships when we dare to be imperfect. My ideal client is one who is motivated, open, and willing to commit to the therapeutic process to gain personal insight and reduce current symptoms that are negatively impacting their functioning. Allow me to partner with you and help you understand that you are worthy of connection, love, and belonging.

I believe importance of a right view that comes from balanced mindset and emotion and it will help to empower, uplift clarity, and motivate success and happiness. My working style gives clients a safe space to find authentic expression about their life's struggles and build healthy solutions that produce positive perspective and empowerment. Personally I practice meditation and Buddhism doctrines. I help clients overcome limiting beliefs, resolve obstacles that derail their collaboration, and elevate mutual strengths, joy, and potential for deep connection.

Hello, I'm Samantha a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to adolescents and adults throughout California and Oregon. I specialize in supporting clients who are managing stress, navigating life transitions, and coping with anxiety. Life can feel overwhelming at times—whether you’re adjusting to a new role, facing uncertainty, or dealing with persistent worry. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a supportive space where you can slow down, reflect, and begin to make sense of what you’re experiencing. My approach is client-centered and collaborative. I believe therapy works best as a partnership—one where your voice is valued and your experiences are respected. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on you and identify practical, realistic tools that align with your lifestyle and personal goals. Because no two individuals experience stress or anxiety in the same way, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs. I strive to create a safe, welcoming environment where you can show up as your authentic self. My goal is to help you gain clarity, strengthen coping skills, and build the confidence needed to move forward with intention. Therapy isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about creating space to grow, heal, and take meaningful steps toward the life you want.

I help people get curious about themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that keep them stuck. I work with folks who want to feel more grounded, explore their emotions, and make sense of life’s twists and turns—sometimes challenging, sometimes playful. I especially enjoy working with clients who are spiritually curious, reflective, and open to exploring dreams, symbols, and the deeper mysteries of life, while also building practical skills for navigating feelings and relationships. My approach blends talk therapy with somatic awareness, mindfulness, Jungian exploration, and a touch of transpersonal work—plus the tools I bring from herbalism and yoga to support mind-body balance. With couples I weave in the structure and practices of Gottman Method; helping them find healthy communication and balance. I like to meet clients where they are, help them reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create space for growth, insight, and even a little laughter along the way.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use.
