I am a compassionate and dedicated counselor, holding both a LPC and a CAADC. I have been practicing in the field of counseling for 10 years. With a focus on substance abuse, I bring expertise in supporting individuals facing challenges related to addiction. My work extends beyond substance abuse to include guiding clients through issues such as relational/family concerns, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, grief and loss, self-esteem struggles, and career exploration. My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and Motivational Interviewing (MI), offering a holistic and personalized treatment experience. I am committed to helping individuals navigate their journey towards healing and personal growth.

I'm an advocate for self-care and believe that healthy self-care is vital. My self-care involves spending time with my family, playing games with my wife, and taking care of our rescue dog Tilly. I also find that cooking for my family is very therapeutic and helps me unwind after a stressful day.

Sam is an Associate Professional Counselor (pre-license Clinician) and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor with experience working with adults across the lifespan in a variety of settings, including Campus Counseling Centers, inpatient psychiatric centers, and outpatient therapy centers. Sam has also spent 8 years as an educational consultant and music instructor for several school districts across Pennsylvania.

So much of life's suffering comes not only from the events (traumas, grief, adjustment/transitions, pressure, stress), but our response to the events. Pain, rejection, avoidance, guilt, shame, anxiety, depression - we spend a great deal of time and effort attempting to escape from these places, and yet something truly powerful can happen when we begin to learn how to live functional, collaborative, fulfilling lives with them, rather than attempting to escape.

In our work together, the goal is to walk side-by-side toward a more fulfilling life! I believe that everyone's unique background, lifestyle, and psychological needs merit an individualized approach. I incorporate a variety of cognitive behavioral approaches into my work (ACT, DBT, CPT), and believe that there's a reason behind every action. As a clinician trainee, I take my continued education very seriously, and believe this is reflected in my detail-oriented approach to Therapy.
