Sam Hinds, Ph.D.

The call to begin therapy usually begins with a difficulty of some kind: various forms of emotional suffering, persistent challenges in relationships, encounters with the effects of trauma, an elusive sense of 'stuckness' or existential uneasiness, and other crises mild or severe. These 'symptoms' call us to bring caring and curious attention to where it is needed — below the surface of whatever it is that troubles us. Depth psychotherapy is means of making contact with what ordinarily lies beyond our conscious awareness. Very often, our suffering calls us to a deeper life and leads to unexpected places. My approach is always initially nondirective: we begin by making space and listening, together, for what feels most relevant here and now. Depending on your particular situation and needs, I may introduce mindfulness, somatic awareness, parts work, (i.e., Internal Family Systems, or IFS), dream work, imaginal attunement, and relational inquiry. I'll be eager to get a sense for who you are, what you are struggling with, and what matters most deeply to you as you follow your calling toward therapeutic work. Feel free to reach out for a consultation call to see if we will be well-matched to work together.

Sam is empathetic, patient, kind, and reliable. I’ve had many therapists over the years, but he was by far the best fit for what I needed. He was able to bring me back to a calm place when I was anxious and was a peaceful resource when I was deep in my depression. Sam taught me a way to hold my feelings in a way that never felt safe before. He knew when to nudge me in the right direction and when to pull back if I was overwhelmed. I now feel more confident facing issues on my own and I am able to continue working towards my mental health goals even though our sessions have ended. I’m incredibly grateful for our time together.
