I’m Sam Mashaw, a clinical social worker committed to helping you cultivate the self-confidence and self-compassion to step into your wholeness. We live in a society that often seems designed to keep us small, keep us scared, and keep us doubting ourselves.

The truth is this: the world needs YOU, your unique gifts, and perspective. Whatever you’re going through, I am here to help you tap into your innate strengths and wisdom to navigate your life.

Do you feel lost? Is everyday a chore to get through? Do you want to feel heard and validated?

Life is a journey with ebbs and flows. Whether you're enjoying the highs of life, facing a low point, or somewhere in between, therapy always adds value and helps to ground us no matter where we are on that journey. As it is often said, healing isn't linear and it's an ever evolving process. The more we seek to heal ourselves, the more it shifts and impacts our relationships with others. And I hope to walk alongside you on your journey to a healthier you and healthier relationships.
