I know that right now you feel overwhelmed and alone. The path ahead of you isn't easy, but it can be done. I'd love the opportunity to walk beside you and help be a guide along the way. I can't wait to meet you! I love to work with children and families, and my specialties include children with special needs and learning differences, including Asperger's Syndrome and mild autism. I also do general counseling for adults and teens. I love to help kids develop skills that will help them lead a successful, independent life. If you'd like to talk more, please feel free to contact me. I also love working with schools, teachers and churches to help them develop effective strategies for working with children with special needs.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Very patient and understanding.
One thing I like about Sam is that he really listens actively and provides advice based on your specific situations instead of generalizing everything and putting everything in a box. He's been a real professional and exceeded my expectations.
Sam is intelligent, empathetic, and genuinely cares about helping you. I am glad I have him as my therapist!
Sam has been incredible thus far. He takes the time to listen fully and is inquisitive about the things that trouble you.
Sam has met me right where I am and helps me see my own opportunities to grow. I’ve been impressed with his repertoire of tools and terminology that he adjusts to me personally and I can pick what works best. It feels like a partnership and is just what I was looking for. I’m willing to bet that if I was looking for something else completely, he could do that too. Highly recommend him!
Sam Peters is a great man! He is helping me turn my life around and the way he does it is very professional and wise! He takes the time to listen and guides me in the right direction!
Sam is very kind and understanding. He is great at listening and providing constructive advice. He knows when to be serious and when to just help you have a laugh. I've really appreciated all of the help he's given me so far and would definitely recommend him to others.

He was very knowledgeable and presented a positive demeanor. I felt very comfortable speaking with him.
He is amazing. Such a good listener and motivated.
Sam is intuitive and empathic. Coupled with his great ability to listen, he never disappoints me when he suggests tactics and solutions to tackle my problems. He always tries to draw me back to the trigger and let me look at the other side of the coin when assessing a situation - usually the brighter one.
