I’m a Latinx bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Doctoral Candidate in Applied Clinical Psychology, who is trained in EMDR and is passionate about helping adults and adolescents cultivate a more fulfilling life and satisfying relationships. My primary goal is to help you increase your sense of safety, become a better version of yourself, and thrive in your relationships.

My passion for mental health stems from my recovery story. I fell in love with the people and organizations that helped me. And, when I starting helping others on the path of personal growth, I knew what I was put on this planet to do. So, I got out of the job I hated to pursue a Master's Degree in Social Work at USC. My approach to psychotherapy focuses on learning about the journey my clients have experienced. Followed by a solution-focused orientation that encourages forward progress and goal achievement. I believe that with love, support, and honesty anything is possible.

My role is to support you and walk alongside you through this time in life.

Welcome to my practice. I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

Taking the first step toward getting help is the hardest part and I understand that. I am the founder & clinical director of Daybreak Counseling Center.

This is the chance to move through your fear of abandonment and rejection, and the chance to begin to lead your authentic life. My intention is to walk with you on the journey of knowing yourself. I strongly believe in open curiosity paired with synergy which is a bedrock to a trust-based relationship.

Ciao, I'm Samantha Elisabetta Tomarchio, LMFT. I am a licensed trauma, sex, and relationship psychotherapist. My work is intersectional, attachment-based, and rooted in somatic awareness of the body with a mindfulness twist. I have extensive experience working with folks who hold multicultural identities, who are of the LBGTQIA+ population, as well as, though not limited to, those struggling with sexual / sexuality-related intimacy and relationship issues.

Let us have a conversation about YOU without skipping the difficult issues due to the shame that society has attached to them: your body, your sexuality, your desires, your darkest fantasies, your weaknesses, your fears, your disappointments, your failures, and everything that makes you human. Be prepared to be received in an accepting space that would allow your organic self to come into being which will pave the way for self discovery and living authentically. To know and become one's authentic self is the key to a life well-lived.

“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness." I believe that care can/should be individualized (in collaboration with the individual), contain healthy coping skills, and help build a social support network that can help him/her/them progress towards a much happier future.

As your therapist, I am committed to cultivating a healing environment to compassionately support you in being able to align with your true values and learn to be in authentic relationship with yourself, your loved ones and within your community. We’ll take a healing journey together towards a path of a more meaningful and fulfilling life. A life where you will be able to set boundaries and know how to have your needs met. A life that will feel lighter and you’d feel more at ease with others and with yourself. A life in which it’s comfortable to truly be who you are.
