Hi there! My name is Samantha and I am an LCSW based out of the Hudson Valley in New York State. After graduating with my MSW in 2019 I worked in community based crisis intervention services, emergency & inpatient hospital based psychiatric services, forensic services, as well as the outpatient setting.
I have experience using:
Therapy serves as a great way to gain confidence in a controlled setting, but my focus is taking that confidence and using it to as a tool to empower yourself in your every day life. Our sessions should always be a place that you feel safe to express yourself, process experiences, be curious, and grow. If something isn't working, let's change it! I am always open to hearing what your have to say - this is your treatment.
Your goals are my goals!
Our first step is to figure out what you want to get out of therapy. If you already know what you need, let's figure out how to make those goals a reality. I always strive to maintain a person centered approach, meeting you where you're at.
For some, therapy might seem like a chore. My hope is that you look forward to our sessions together and see each one as an opportunity for growth in a place where you feel supported and empowered.
