Limited slots in Aug 24! Do you want to make progress quickly? I have often been told that clients make more progress with me in one session than in months of past therapy. We examine your past, as genuine lasting change is based on insight into how patterns developed, but we are focused on creating the life you want NOW. I work best with motivated, intelligent, verbal clients. Couples with intimacy issues are a specialty. Visit drpsychmom.com & listen to The Dr. Psych Mom Show! I get you in right away, we don't want to slow down the momentum that brought you here. I can also refer to my group, Best Life!
I love working with dissatisfied couples, Highly Sensitive People, men with difficulty expressing emotions, adult children of dysfunctional parents, love and sex issues, and high achievers. Learn more at drsamantharodman.com. My life experiences include parenting 3 kids, marriage, divorce, remarriage, blended family, depression, and 12+ years in practice.
I deeply enjoy working with clients and my proactive approach always leaves you with something to think about, read, or try. I've witnessed many clients make significant, lasting changes beyond expectations. When you contact me, I respond quickly because I know it's hard to get the courage to reach out! Let me help you OR direct you to an associate who can!

Groups
Adult Children of Dysfunctional Families Group

If you grew up with a parent who struggled with substance abuse, depression, PTSD, anxiety, or conflictual relationships, this online group is for you. Over 4 weeks, we will discuss the impact of families of origin, why you may never feel "normal," your frustration with your family currently and/or considerations for those who have gone low/no contact, how to set boundaries and have healthy relationships in your life now, and how to cut yourself some slack for not having "gotten over" the childhood experiences that shaped you.
