As we journey through our lives, it is inevitable that we might encounter challenges, confusion, loss, or self-doubt. The waves of stress and pain can carry us away from the shore of our true selves, making it difficult to find our way back to a space of peace and clarity. My aim as a therapist is to serve as an anchor amidst the uncertainties, supporting you as you move through the peaks and valleys of your unique path. This approach is largely built on relational elements, trauma-informed practices, mind-body healing, and fostering inner strength and resilience.

Change is hard. Whether it’s a move, a loss of a loved one, or a new job, transitions can be some of the most challenging things you work through. Even if it’s a transition you expect or choose, often it still isn’t easy. You have to ask yourself, “How do I move forward?”. You may even ask yourself, “Who am I now?”. The stress of uncertainty can take your sleep, your appetite, your relationships, or even the activities you used to love. Sometimes you might have to numb those feelings just to get through your day.

Samantha McGlumphy enjoys working with guests who are open to feedback and willing to try new approaches to their issues or struggles. Also, due to her belief that the guest is the “expert” in their own lives, an individual who wants to be an active collaborator in their treatment will strengthen the therapeutic relationship and elicit better outcomes. The most impactful experience of her career path so far has been her exposure and volunteer/mission work with undocumented immigrants. This includes teaching English as a second language to undocumented individuals and traveling to the border to engage in an immersion experience.
