Great to meet you!

Hello! I'm so excited that you are here. Welcome to the start of something new! My name is Samaria Witherspoon, but I’m commonly known as Sam. I am an author, professor as well as the founder of Hidden to Healing, LLC providing individual, couples and family counseling to those that are struggling with trauma, anxiety, overall life satisfaction, depression, aggression, grief, substance abuse, and behavioral and emotional issues.

My approach to therapy

Let me first make note that I am not your typical therapist. I’m authentic in my approach to meet my clients wherever they are. I know that it’s hard trying to have and keep it all together. My goal is to help you see you! Thank you for considering a future with me. I sincerely appreciate it and I can’t wait to meet you.

What you can expect from me

Are you struggling to find a balance within your life? Do you feel like you don’t have a purpose within life? Are you worried about your child's constant misbehavior? Are you worried that your partner doesn't understand you anymore? Did a family member or friend recently transition and you need help grieving? If so, I am here to help!
