Chaim Samet

Welcome—I’m glad you’re here!

My name is Chaim, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, complex trauma (C-PTSD), low self-esteem, confidence concerns, and relationship challenges.

My approach combines evidence-based care with warmth, curiosity, and compassion.

As a client, you might consider exploring the experiences and patterns that contribute to your struggles while building practical tools to support emotional regulation, healthier relationships, and meaningful change.

I bring a multicultural perspective to my work and strive to offer an affirming, respectful space for people of diverse cultures, identities, and life experiences. Therapy is tailored to your individual needs, values, strengths, and goals—whether you are seeking support independently or as a couple.

You may be healing from painful experiences, feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns, navigating relationship conflict, or hoping to reconnect with your confidence and sense of self. You do not have to face it alone.

My goal is to help you move beyond survival and coping toward greater resilience, self-understanding, and a life that feels more authentic, connected, and fulfilling.

I specialize in working with Trauma and Complex PTSD. My observation is that many people experience trauma at some point in their lives, though it often goes unnoticed or unaddressed. Because these experiences frequently emerge within the family setting, I take a holistic approach—supporting individuals, couples, and families as they heal and grow together.

In my practice, I integrate evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, CBT, DBT, or IFS to enhance the therapeutic experience and promote meaningful, measurable growth. My goal is to help clients achieve a greater sense of balance, healing, and overall quality of life.

Authenticity, compassion, and collaboration are my modes of connecting with you. I create an atmosphere that is safe, warm, and supportive. You will experience real progress and meaningful change.

At the start of therapy, clients can expect to:

1. Establish a strong therapeutic match—helping you feel comfortable, understood, and supported from the beginning.
2. Learn practical self-regulation skills to manage stress and emotions more effectively.
3. Explore realistic and meaningful ways to cope with ongoing life challenges.
4. Strengthen self-esteem and build a deeper sense of self-worth.
5. Gain clarity and confidence in overcoming the challenges that have been holding you back from success.
6. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Happy to connect!
