Getting to know Dr. Sam Hinds

My approach to therapy combines mindful presence, somatic attunement, relational engagement, and imaginal exploration…

What should a new client know about working with you?

My practice is informed by my training in the tradition of depth psychology. Put very simply, depth psychotherapy proceeds from an acknowledgement of the presence and role of the unconscious in the therapeutic encounter. The unconscious refers to parts of ourselves of which we typically remain unaware, yet influence our behaviors, motivations, habits, perceptions or reactions. Psychotherapy can be an aid toward making conscious what is unconscious. This approach means that I hold you, and the fullness of your inner world, with a symbolic attitude, sensing into deeper meanings and themes underlying the dominant patterns and sufferings in your life. While the orientation toward healing is a central part of psychotherapy, this is only half of the picture; psychotherapy also orients toward bringing forth your aliveness and supporting the unfolding of your authentic expression. I do not follow a systematic, manualized approach to psychotherapy. My approach is always initially nondirective. We begin by making space and listening, together, for what feels most relevant here and now so that we can mutually respond to what naturally wants to emerge in our sessions. Following the natural unfolding of the process, I may introduce other approaches, such as mindfulness, somatic awareness, parts work, (i.e., Internal Family Systems), dream work, imaginal attunement, and relational inquiry.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I offer a hybrid model that incorporates both in-person adnd virtual sessions.
