Getting to know Samantha Lockhart

Many of my clients appear put together on the outside but feel anxious, exhausted, or disconnected on the inside. You may replay conversations, worry about how you’re perceived, or feel like you’re performing in relationships. Even when life looks “good,” it can still feel hard to relax or trust that you’re truly seen. My work helps you slow down, soften self-criticism, and connect more deeply with yourself and others. I use a warm, relational, and somatic approach informed by AEDP, IFS, and somatic therapies. Together, we explore the patterns that keep you striving or guarded and make space for the parts of you that long for ease, rest, and genuine connection. My goal is to help you feel grounded, supported, and more at home in yourself.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Show up as you are and the rest will unfold. We move at your pace. I’ll help you notice subtle cues like tension, shutting down, or the urge to apologize, and we’ll explore what those reactions are trying to protect. I check in often, support regulation during difficult emotions, and celebrate strengths you may not yet see in yourself. My intention is for therapy to feel safe, respectful, and deeply supportive of your growth.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

We begin by exploring what brings you in, your history, and what you hope will feel different. Early sessions help us understand your patterns in relationships, how stress shows up in your body, and the strategies you’ve used to stay in control or feel safe. As we continue, we work with emotional and somatic cues at a pace that feels grounded. Using AEDP, IFS, and somatic approaches, we explore protective parts of you and the deeper feelings or needs they’re guarding. Over time, you may experience more ease, clarity, and self-compassion. Clients often find themselves responding differently to stress, feeling more regulated, and relating with greater authenticity. My aim is to support meaningful, lasting change that helps you feel more connected to yourself and others.
