As a psychotherapist trained in Somatic Experiencing, Brainspotting and Inner Relationship Focusing, I support women in recovering from trauma through a body-centered approach. I incorporate these powerful modalities in sessions to aid in healing from trauma, process difficult emotions, and access deeper layers of healing. My goal is to help empower clients to reconnect with their inner strength and create lasting shifts in both mind and body.
I specialize in Somatic Experiencing and completed the 3-year SEP training program and certificate. I also am certified in Brainspotting. These modalities support regulation of the nervous system in the recovery from stress and trauma. Areas of focus include trauma, adjustment to life stressors, depression, anxiety, childhood trauma.
If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself, somatic-oriented therapy could offer a transformative path forward. Through gentle exploration and guided practices, you’ll have the opportunity to reconnect with yourself on a deeper level, fostering greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and empowerment.

Samantha is a kind, caring and insightful therapist. She is equipped with some of the absolute best approaches to help settle the nervous system, and to help people to reach their goals far more quickly than would typically occur with talk therapy alone.
