Beyond the Therapy Room
Sam believes in practicing what she preaches—self-care, balance, and joy are just as important as resilience and growth. When she’s not helping clients overcome life’s obstacles, you’ll find her:
💜 Spending time with family, friends, and her gorgeous Cavoodle
💜 Hitting the gym, dancing, or flowing through yoga and Pilates
💜 Diving into escape rooms for a fun mental challenge
💜 Investing in personal and professional growth to be the best version of herself
For Sam, therapy isn’t just about working through challenges—it’s about helping clients step into their power, build lasting confidence, and create a life that truly feels fulfilling.
