Getting to know Sam Hardy

Hi there! My name is Sam (she/her), and I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to work with you. As a therapist, my energy is vibrant, welcoming, and warm. I strive to cultivate a practice that is hopeful and collaborative, infusing compassion and curiosity into every session to support you in achieving your goals. Because I believe that the relationship between the client and therapist is extraordinarily important, I aim to foster a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to explore and express every aspect of yourself. I value and welcome clients of all gender, sexual, racial, and ethnic identities and backgrounds. While the therapeutic process can involve emotional moments of growth, I also seek to provide space for lightheartedness and humor throughout our time together. Born and raised in sunny Los Angeles, I received my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with minors in Individuals, Societies, & Aging and Forensics & Criminality from the University of Southern California. I completed my graduate education at Northwestern University as a therapist-in-training at the Family Institute, earning a Master of Science degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. Some of my individual clinical interests include working with adults to manage anxiety, perfectionism, self-esteem issues, life transitions, depression, grief and loss, difficult family relationships, and trauma. I am passionate about helping couples broach complex topics including infidelity, communication, and intimacy issues. Additionally, I have considerable experience working with older adults and families experiencing aging challenges and end of life concerns. I am very interested in supporting older individuals as they process past trauma, combat senior loneliness, and / or encounter evolving medical concerns.
