Hi there! I’m sam, a student therapist currently working toward my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. As a clinician, I look forward to holding space and providing support for others as they bravely navigate their journey.
I received my undergrad degree in History and Spanish from Tulane University in New Orleans and am currently attending Touro University for my Masters program. After undergrad, I moved to Los Angeles and then Brooklyn, where I pursued comedy and worked as an Early Childhood Educator. Working as a teacher with small children and their families profoundly impacted the way I understand kindness, listening, meeting people where they are at, and communication. While teaching, I also served as a professional matchmaker, in which I would work with clients to identify dating patterns, hold space for dating struggles, and encourage individuals to open themselves up to new types of love and connection. All of my human-centric experiences have culminated in my professional passion for helping people understand themselves and one another more fully.
In New York City, I co-founded an LGBTQ+ comedy open mic and social collective. What started as a space for queer comics to feel confident trying new material for friends and other LGBTQ+ comics grew into an incredible community of queer creatives who lift up and support one another. I am passionate about creating spaces where people can come together, feel heard, and use laughter and connection to heal, and want to continue living this value in my work as a clinician.
As a queer woman, I am excited to begin my work with CHRIS and continue supporting fellow members of the LGBTQ+ community as well as the greater Philadelphia community. I have extensive experience working with youth (0-18) as well as young adults and women. Matchmaking and community organizing has provided me with a unique perspective that I’m eager to bring to work with couples, with groups, and in sex therapy. I am passionate about using an intersectional framework and developing a therapeutic relationship in which the client feels heard and empowered to make choices about their journey.
