About Samantha

My ideal client is someone experiencing depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders. They face challenges in managing stress and seek to develop effective coping skills. They may also struggle with communication, assertiveness, and maintaining healthy relationships in school, work, and personal life. They are eager to understand the roots of their behaviors, whether stemming from childhood experiences or their current environment. Additionally, they may simply desire a non-judgmental space to express their thoughts and feelings. I specialize in depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood disorders, communication, trauma, stress, chronic pain, as well as working with families. I focus on setting boundaries, healthy relationships, and self-compassion, and use DBT, CBT, and motivational interviewing. I also understand the importance of the mind-body connection and relationship between mental and physical health. If you're facing challenges with your mental health, I'm here to support you. If your usual coping methods aren't effective, we can explore new strategies together. If you want to improve how you express your feelings to those around you, we can discuss your relationships and communication skills.
