My name is Samantha Miller, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in Art Therapy. My passion is to create a safe, judgment-free space where clients can explore their experiences and move toward overall wellness using their own unique strengths.

While I draw from a variety of evidence-based practices, I believe that therapy should be as individual as the person receiving it. I tailor my approach to meet each client’s specific needs, with experience in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy.

After retiring from the Army, I went back to school to obtain my masters of Social Work to help others who suffer from trauma and depression. My biggest inspiration for wanting to help others is the help that I have received along the way. It was after seeing my therapist who helped to guide me through gender, dysphoria, and my transition, that I begin my path that has led me here, wanting to help others. My guiding philosophy is that you deserve to treat yourself as good if not better than anyone else. When you feel good, others will feel good too.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Camden, SC


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in working with children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of settings. I began my career as a substance use counselor, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding how life stressors, trauma, and mental health challenges are often interconnected. This experience led me to expand my training to better support individuals with a wide range of concerns.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, anger management, and life transitions. I also have experience supporting clients navigating grief, family challenges, and difficulties with emotional regulation and relationships. I use evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), DBT, motivational interviewing, client-centered approaches, and play-based interventions to meet clients where they are developmentally and emotionally.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Aiken

Finding the right therapist in Aiken starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're seeking help with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, or life transitions, look for a licensed provider — such as an LPC, LISW-CP, LMFT, or psychologist — who has experience with your specific concerns. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before you book.

Aiken is a smaller metro area, so local in-person availability can be limited compared to larger cities. Virtual sessions expand your options significantly, connecting you with licensed South Carolina providers who may be based elsewhere in the state. Many providers offer both in-person and virtual appointments, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule.

Therapy in Aiken can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
