I’m Sam Mashaw, a clinical social worker committed to helping you cultivate the self-confidence and self-compassion to step into your wholeness. We live in a society that often seems designed to keep us small, keep us scared, and keep us doubting ourselves. I consider how social context–historical, present, personal, and systemic–may be influencing the stories you have about yourself, your relationships, and the possibilities for your life. The truth is this: the world needs YOU, your unique gifts, and perspective. Whatever you’re going through, I am here to help you tap into your innate strengths and wisdom to navigate your life.
I have clinical experience supporting clients with a variety of emotional and social challenges including life transitions, anxiety, depression, grief, and relational issues with family and peers including bullying, isolation, and divorce. I have a passion for supporting LGBTQIA clients and their families.
I use an eclectic mix of therapeutic styles to support you. I am trained in psychodynamic therapy and may incorporate elements of IFS, CBT, narrative therapy, MI, mindfulness, and somatic techniques in our work together. Creating an environment where you feel seen and safe to be your full, authentic, and richly complex self is my priority.
