Therapy for Trauma, Eating Disorders & Maternal issues in Winter Park, FL

Welcome to My Corner of the Therapeutic Journey!

Hello! I'm Samantha Bickham (she/her), a licensed mental health counselor certified in EMDR.

How I Can Help

I help my clients find their confidence, repair their relationships with themselves, and heal from past traumas.

By using Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), we will work to reduce the intensity and frequency of trauma-related issues, resolve unprocessed traumatic experiences or memories, address and reprocess negative beliefs about the self, and alleviate disturbances from trauma-related stressors.

EMDR combined with Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) enhances mindfulness and values-driven actions, helping to navigate life's complexities with resilience and purpose.

Together, these therapeutic modalities create a synergistic effect, fostering transformation and a fulfilling life aligned with core values.
