Trauma-informed care for the mind & body — supporting individuals, couples, and families in the Orlando Area.

A team of trauma therapists dedicated to helping you feel more grounded, supported, & understood.

Most people come to us because something in their life feels heavy, overwhelming, or out of balance. Maybe you’re navigating trauma or anxiety, managing neurodivergence or chronic pain, struggling in a relationship, or simply feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Whatever you’re carrying, it’s personal and it’s affecting the way you move through your days.

You want relief. You want clarity. You want something to shift.

We meet you with honesty, care, and zero judgment - walking alongside you as you work through the hard stuff.

What People Are Saying

“I have worked with other therapists before and I had begun to believe that therapy just wouldn’t work for me. Working through EMDR and parts work with Samantha changed all of that. She is kind, warm, friendly, knowledgeable and resourceful and I am forever grateful for the life-changing results!”
“The counseling service I received here with Samantha has truly been the most life changing experience for me. Her services have completely transformed not only my ability to handle my anxiety, but the way I am now able to live my life. Her warmth, guidance, and tools allowed me to make sense of my emotions and experiences. Through this and processing what was necessary, I have come out the other side in a way that I would have never saw possible before I started services. I cannot recommend this experience enough for anyone who is considering starting.”
“I’ve seen at least five therapists over the years and Samatha was the first therapist I used who helped me make progress. Thank you, Samantha!”
