Hi folks! My name is Sam, and as a LCSW and therapist, I want everyone to feel safe, supported, and empowered while in my care. Seeking therapy is an important but challenging first step in a personal journey to growth, so I'm so glad you're here! I've worked with folks 13 and over for several years, and have experience with people experiencing personality disorders, domestic violence, life transitions, autism, anxiety, and depression.
My approach to therapy is inviting, warm, and challenging all-in-one. As your therapist, I am wholeheartedly on your team and want to see you succeed. In order to do that properly, it is my responsibility to ensure that you feel safe to be honest and vulnerable, so that you can reach the goals you have for yourself. I will always do my best to meet you where you are and see what we can build from there.
Our first session is our first opportunity to get to know one another and set the standard for what you need from the therapeutic process. During our first session, I will want to get to know you and your background, as well as what your goals are. It will also be an opportunity for you to ask me any questions or express any concerns you have regarding the process. From there, you and I would make a game plan that addresses your needs, meets you where you are, and makes you feel that the challenges you are currently facing will be combatted in a way that leaves you feeling seen.
