More about Samantha

  • 15 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW, LICSW

I'm a licensed therapist practicing across Georgia, Indiana, Maine, and Massachusetts. With extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments, I work with clients of all backgrounds to address depression, anxiety, and stress.

My clinical focus includes social anxiety, phobias, panic disorder, and panic attacks. I also specialize in supporting older adults navigating the unique transitions and concerns that come with aging. I bring particular expertise in bipolar disorder and understand how it impacts daily life, relationships, and overall wellness.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and a deep commitment to meeting you where you are. I believe therapy works best when built on genuine connection, respect, and collaboration. Whether you're managing anxiety that feels overwhelming, processing grief and life changes, or seeking support during a difficult season, I'm here to help you move toward greater peace and resilience.

Starting therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and growth.

My general availability is 8am to 3pm on Monday, Thursday, Friday. I am available for messaging Monday through Friday.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
