Getting to know Samantha Kramer

Deciding to come to therapy is the first step towards change. Finding a therapist who is the right fit for you is next. I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience in inpatient mental health treatment, substance use treatment, partial hospitalization, and community mental health. I have worked with individuals across the life span and specialize with adolescents/young adults. My therapeutic approach is based first and foremost on the therapeutic relationship, the idea that therapy should be person centered around your unique circumstances. I pull from evidenced based practices including CBT, DBT, MI, and play therapy.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, or challenges associated with your phase of life, everyone deserves their life worth living. Together we can build on the strengths you already possess and learn to implement the coping skills that work for you.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Our work together would start with a brief 15 minute call to determine if we are the right fit. We would then begin the process of intake: gathering some history from you as well as current concerns. From there we would explore weekly or biweekly telehealth sessions depending on your level of need.
