Samantha Akins

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Accepting clients Last Updated Today

My name is Samantha and I help young adults navigate the pressures and expectations of college life.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for the past 16 years, I strongly believe in the importance of one's own mental health and wellness. My style is collaborative, empowering and free of judgement.

In our sessions, we'll focus on what matters most to you. I will assist you in addressing the thoughts and feelings that stand in your way of achieving educational success, healthy relationships or simply personal peace.

My hope is that you'll begin to see progress and feel empowered to make the changes you're looking to make.

Please email me with any questions you might have and please note that I can offer availability outside of the business hours listed.
