We all have a natural resiliency, but sometimes need external supports to feel empowered. Combining use of verbal psychotherapy, EMDR, creative arts therapy, and mindfulness, I provide this support in a way that best fits your individual needs. I work with all ages, with a specific focus on adolescents and adults. Through the context of a trusting therapeutic relationship, my clients explore issues, both past, present, and future. This brings about a deeper level of self-awareness that leads to personal growth, healing, and the alleviation of stress.

In my practice, I utilize EMDR, mindfulness training, cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT, Internal Family Systems and Somatic Intervention, and draw from other evidence-based methods.
Because counseling can sometimes be a daunting experience, I aim to put my clients at ease from the first moment. Life can be difficult to navigate. We accumulate invisible scars and wounds over time. When the tools and thoughts that we use to cope with life's changes and challenges are out dated, they can leave us feeling depressed, fearful, or overwhelmed. I work collaboratively with my clients to fully understand their issues and to develop treatment strategies that address their concerns in an open, safe, and understanding environment.

Are you feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or struggling with emotional regulation? Whether you are navigating a specific issue or seeking personal growth, I am dedicated to supporting you on this journey. In our sessions, you can expect a safe and comforting space where we can explore your thoughts, behaviors, and feelings together.

Using a blend of therapies, including mindfulness, EMDR and IFS, I can help you change these patterns for good.
Are you feeling dissatisfied despite doing all the things you’re supposed to do? Maybe you’ve been unhappy but you don’t really know why. You’re often feeling anxious or worried, overwhelmed, and guilty. Saying ‘no’ to people doesn’t always feel like an option. There’s a way to be confident and self-assured without being a jerk. The truth is it doesn’t have to be that hard.

Using mindfulness with CBT and psychodynamic therapy is key to transforming old thought patterns into new adaptive ones.
Who you are is not up for debate. I place the intersections of identity at the forefront of my practice because identity frames who we are and how we experience the world. Those who experienced Childhood Sexual Abuse know it can negatively impact every area of your life. This type of trauma can lead to isolation, guilt, shame, sexual problems, depression, anxiety, relationship troubles and so much more. It is time to take back your life. I can help you break free from the hold your past abuse still has on you today. Together we can explore new interventions and tools, develop new skills and rewrite your narrative. You deserve this!

I frequently utilize CBT, EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy), ARA (the Ackerman Relational Approach), and mindfulness techniques as we learn and embrace the many overlapping identities that exist within you.
Whatever you may be feeling in this moment, remember that you are a multifaceted and complex individual, changing with every new experience and emotion each day. Navigating life hasn’t been an easy task, and perhaps, the decision to search for a therapist has convinced you that you may even be failing at it. In this therapeutic space, you are never a failure. I’m devoted to providing you the environment, empathy, and support you need to better understand the circumstances that may be preventing you from living a more positive, cohesive life. I consider my style to be relational, holistic, and client-centered.

These frequently include tools like "parts work," cognitive restructuring, mindfulness/body awareness, and going slowly and intentionally through childhood experiences to see what impact they might have on adult beliefs and patterns of behavior.
I work with both couples and individuals of all ages, and have a collaborative approach that leaves room for humor amidst intensity and gentleness amidst serious change. I have specialized experience providing sex therapy, LGBTQ+ support, Asian American culturally competent care, and counseling for multicultural identities and relationships. These therapeutic specialties further overlap with my passions for healthcare equity and activism for collective liberation. Clinical social work cannot merely be the bandaid that makes oppression easier to stomach; it should be part of the work that gets us free.

My work is grounded in relational theory – but above all, we make it actionable with mindfulness and personalized, practical strategies to help you achieve your goals.
Do you feel you're at an inflection point in your life? That you've worked hard, but your effort has also taken a toll: be it burnout, anxiety, a sense of emptiness, or difficulty with relationships you care about? That, no matter how much you have achieved, those feelings of inadequacy are still nagging at you? My goal is to help you take charge: to put your "inner critic" in its place – and achieve a genuine, sustainable sense of well-being.

I utilize modalities such as dreamwork, mindfulness, body-based, psychodynamic and cognitive/behavioral therapy.
The fundamental core of my practice is the belief that each individual has the capacity for wisdom, growth and change with respect to his/her own life. I trust that the potential that is necessary for change is within each person, but this capacity may not always be evident or accessible. As a clinician, I believe that one of the most important components of psychotherapy is having an atmosphere which is supportive, patient, validating and compassionate. I approach my patients with integrity and a commitment to help you create a higher quality of life that resonates with your true self.

Samelle includes different ranges of modalities within her practice, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Mindfulness techniques.
Samelle believes that no matter what race, class, or gender identity you are, you deserve to be heard and get the help you need. Her treatment goals are to increase self-awareness, insight, and well-being, help individuals be comfortable with themselves, and achieve a lasting change to help with their day-to-day routine and lifestyle. When it comes to therapy there is always a stigma that mental health is not as important or can be seen as a weakness due to society and social media. My goal as your counselor is to build a therapeutic relationship with one another and to help reach the goals you want to achieve.

My work is grounded in psychodynamic theory, but I also draw upon CBT and mindfulness.
Seeking therapy, or asking for help is not an easy step. And yet, if you are here, it is probably because you are looking for some answers, guidance, and a trustful environment where you can talk about whatever difficult situation you are going through. By taking the first step, you are showing courage and together we can help you learn to embrace your individual strengths to better cope with life hardships. In a warm, safe, and empathetic environment, I help people gain confidence, identify negative patterns, feel more in control of their own lives, and get a better understanding of what they want for themselves.
