Sam has been an absolute blessing. I am incredibly grateful for the time she takes with me, her patience, and her gentle approach. She provides a safe space where I can open up without the fear of judgment, and I truly appreciate the understanding she offers. I hope that our sessions will continue to focus on genuine support, rather than assumptions, as I’ve experienced from others. I’m relieved to be receiving the help I need, and I’m so thankful that Sam was the one matched with me.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

She is amazing
I took a month off and couldn’t wait to get back with her. It’s so nice to have someone actually listen to you and help you with your problems and notice things maybe you don’t. She challenges me and pushes me to be a better person and I love it and her!
Samantha is a beautiful soul, well versed in trauma healing and walking alongside me as a Christian as I lean on Jesus to help me heal - she is simply an incredible human, and I would recommend her over and over to any Christian woman looking for a genuine Christ-centered and trauma recovery and healing therapy approach.
The first therapist I've had, she really listens and gives me encouraging advice and help through some of the hardest times in life. Thank you so much Samantha for being my therapist.
Samantha has been a game changer for me. She's attentive, caring, and knowledgeable, and she met me without judgement every session. Samantha has really helped me process a lot of my grief and trauma, and I'm grateful for the experience.
I was hesitant about using a virtual therapy platform. However, Samantha has really shown me that thiabis exactly what I needed. A safe place to put all of my thoughts. A safe person who can hold them alongside me and guide me on not just my mental health journey but also my spiritual journey. I believe she has helped me grow closer to my God and His Creation - myself and my body.
Knowledgeable, attentive insightful and patient! Got quickly to the heart of what I needed and made plans for me which was appreciated!

Samantha has helped me through the most difficult time in my life. She has helped me better understand myself and to identify the reason of why I feel the way I do.
