I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice with experience in supporting individuals and families through life's most challenging moments. My background includes case management, child and family services, and hospital-based social work within a Level I trauma center. I specialize in helping clients navigate crisis, trauma, and emotional distress with compassion, clarity, and evidence-based care.
l earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of South Carolina. My therapeutic approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and emotionally focused therapy to help clients build emotional awareness, strengthen coping skills, and foster healthy connections.
I'm Sam — I work with teens and adults navigating some of life's harder chapters. I've had the chance to work with people carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, relationship stress, and the kind of slow-burn exhaustion that builds when life isn't matching the life you imagined. What matters most to me is that you feel like yourself in the room (or on the screen) — not performing okayness, not bracing for judgment. I'm newer to the field, which means my training is current and evidence-based, and I bring genuine enthusiasm to this work rather than going through the motions. I offer a sliding scale for those who need it. Sessions are available virtually across South Carolina.
I graduated from Simmons School of Social Work with my MSW with a concentration on trauma treatment. I completed my internship at a community mental health center where I worked as a child trauma clinician. I then spent two years working in a child advocacy center where I was a child therapist and forensic interviewer. I am trained and certified in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and problematic sexual behavior cognitive behavioral therapy for children ages 7-12 (PSB-CBT).
Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20-year of experience in Mental Health. Has worked in Outpatient and Inpatient settings.

I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from California University of Pennsylvania in 2020. Since then, I’ve worked with children and adults facing depression, anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, and some substance use, also at a psychiatrist hospital and with youth in the juvenile system. I’m a first-generation Nigerian American and the creative “black sheep” of my family. I bring empathy, authenticity, and individuality into my therapy practice, helping clients heal and grow.
