Getting to know Samantha Chierchio

I work with children, teens, and adults navigating academic, social, and emotional challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, self-esteem, identity development, and academic or career concerns. I bring a warm, client-centered approach that helps individuals feel supported and empowered as they work toward meaningful growth.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My style is genuine, collaborative, and strengths-based. I draw from evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Adlerian therapy to tailor my work to each client’s unique needs. I help clients build practical coping skills while working toward lasting, sustainable change. I bring experience from both private practice and educational settings supporting at-risk youth, which allows me to meet a wide range of client needs. Above all, I’m committed to creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel truly seen, heard, and understood.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

When you are ready to get started, schedule an initial assessment visit (intake) through Zocdoc. After you book an appointment, a care coordinator will reach out to review your method of payment and/or insurance number and answer any initial questions you may have before our first visit.
