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.

There is one skill that we could all benefit from: the ability to regulate our emotions. I teach individuals how to do this by examining their core beliefs. Sessions with me are meant to be educational. Individuals who seek out my help do so with the comfort of knowing that they will walk out of sessions knowing more about themselves and how to get what they want out of life. Once you have the ability to regulate your emotions, you will be able to behave in ways that brings you closer to your goals whether that's communicating effectively to your partner or maintaining a working relationship with frustrating coworkers.

Despite what Thoreau says, we do not have to live lives of quiet desperation. Through mindfulness and hypnotherapy, you can find freedom from the negative thoughts and beliefs underlying the fear and anger, that is, the stress. I helped stressed out professionals find balance, freedom and joy. Often they try to manage their stress by having a drink, working out, or going out on the town. While these provide some relief, the problem is, they do not get to the source. One day the stress has taken over and there's little or no joy left.

The word renaissance literally means rebirth. So many things in our lives we were born into and did not get to choose; like our parents, our siblings, our homes, our genetics, nor the hand of fate in our lives. Yet there are many things we now get to choose; such as how we relate, the meanings we make, what we choose to believe about ourselves and others, and the decisions we make as a result. We began to write our rule book of life, long before we even knew how to write, and often we don’t realize we are still playing by those same rules that may no longer serve us. Now we can choose differently and free ourselves up to win.

I start with a thorough assessment of your current concerns. I take a broad-minded, non-judgmental approach to understanding what you are looking for help with.

I will take a proactive and positive approach to your participation by helping you identify your personal strengths and assets that you can then use to develop a new and better response to your concerns.

I'm a clinician who is dedicated to creating a warm, safe, and enriching environment for my clients. I understand everyone’s therapy journey is unique and I strive to ensure all of my clients feel seen, heard, and understood. Therapy is space for you to explore your talents and strengths, identify barriers, and learn new approaches to cope with stressors. Most people underestimate the skills and strengths they possess. I believe by empowering and highlighting skills a client already has allows the foundation for new coping strategies to be built. Life can be challenging and I believe nobody should ever feel alone on their journey.

Life is ever changing, and with change can bring a plethora of other emotions including stress, depression and anxiety. It takes strength to seek help when we are feeling most vulnerable. I aim to create a safe, warm, and supportive connection with another person and use that connection to cultivate change. I’d like to help you become empowered to accomplish your own goals and to take control of your life. All transitions are difficult, whether it is anticipated or unexpected change. As adults, we have many responsibilities to uphold. This can include career, relationships, and family, emotional and physical health.

Life can be difficult at times and all of us face challenges that can seem overwhelming or confusing.

My goal is to provide a warm and caring space where you can feel free to share your challenges and work through the uncertainties and decisions that you’re facing. I am interested in finding out what matters most to you and exploring how you can live the life you so richly deserve.
