About
Samantha
Hello, my name is Samantha Wood. I am a licensed MFT with around 15 years of experience in my field. I have worked with individuals with a variety of presenting concerns such as: Bipolar, Autism, Depression, ADHD, C-PTSD/PTSD, Anxiety, and disordered relationships with food, substances, shopping, work, sex, etc. I also work with people experiencing life phase concerns, such as divorce, job loss/career changes, processing health concerns as they relate to mental health, self-worth, fraud complex, existential crisis, LGBTQ+, social injustice, and more. I utilize many different therapeutic modalities such as Compassion Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems, and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I do my best to practice with curiosity, compassion, and non-judgement.
Outside of work, I enjoy yoga, playing with my dogs, hiking and traveling.
