Hey! I'm Samantha and I consider myself a modern day therapist. I'm a Guatemalan & Puerto Rican therapist born and raised in Brooklyn, NY! Apart from therapy, I love to get lost reading books and listening to different genre of music. I am kind, compassionate and empathetic and I am committed to helping you become the best version of yourself & to help you feel accomplished, confident, & empowered.
I gained my experience working in fast paced community clinics and offered services to a variety of patients with different mental health disorders, as well as held a women's support group that meets at Mount Sinai for women who have Crohns and Ulcerative Colitis like I do. I understand that working on your mental health is your top priority and it might not always be the easiest thing to do but I will be there every step of the way. I will work collaboratively with you on helping you tackle whatever issues you may have so you feel more empowered in yourself. As your therapist my number 1 goal is for you to have the time you need to work on yourself and not feel judged or criticized on what you discuss in sessions.
As a therapist I work hard to provide you a safe space to discuss and uncover the good and the bad. I am energetic and humorous and sessions will feel like they are flying by. I will challenge you in ways to help you feel more empowered and be direct with you.
