More about Samantha
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LPCC, LPC
My name is Sam and I am an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in NM & TX, with 6 years of experience. I provide individual therapy to adults (18+) experiencing depression, stress and anxiety, life changes (job change, divorce, moving, graduation), & self-esteem issues (which can include improving communication and boundaries).
Typically we identify the issue that is impacting you, we come up with solutions, and look at the deeper patterns that are keeping you stuck.
My therapy style is warm and goal-oriented. Clients describe me as gentle but direct. I am here to challenge you & support you. We are here to create change.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
