Hi! I'm Samantha, a warm and bubbly professional passionate about empowering young minds. With over 7 years of experience working with children and teens in various settings - including school therapy and counseling, group therapy, social-emotional lessons, and Applied Behavioral Analysis Therapy (ABA) for Autism - I'm dedicated to fostering growth. Outside work, I love connecting through humor, music (R&B and pop), and foodie adventures (Korean BBQ, sushi, shrimp boil, Thai cuisine). In my free time, you'll find me enjoying board games (Sequence, Connect 4, Mancala) and sharing laughter with friends and family. Welcome to a supportive and non-judgmental environment where your well-being matters. I'm dedicated to fostering a safe space that promotes self-discovery and growth. Through a person-centered approach, I'll empower you to take the reins of your mental health journey, gently guiding and emphasizing your strengths to help you achieve your goals.
