Great to meet you!

I’m Samantha Heinly, a licensed therapist specializing in perinatal mental health and queer-affirming care. I support individuals navigating postpartum challenges, substance use, and relationship communication concerns.

Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. In therapy, I offer a safe and affirming space to explore emotions, clarify values, and practice healthy boundaries.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative and compassionate, helping clients build confidence, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with themselves. As a parent, I understand how life transitions can shift your sense of identity and emotional balance.

You don’t have to navigate this alone. Support can make a meaningful difference.

What you can expect from me

My hope is that you walk away from sessions feeling accepted, understood, and respected. When we are fully accepted, we are free to make choices to better our circumstances.
