Getting to know Samantha Rathe
Samantha Rathe is a licensed psychotherapist at North Salem Psychotherapy who works with teens, young adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, and life stress. She specializes in supporting clients who feel overwhelmed by intense emotions, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or unsure how to cope with daily challenges.
Samantha takes a warm, structured, and collaborative approach to therapy. Her work is informed by evidence-based practices, with an emphasis on building practical coping skills, emotional awareness, and confidence over time. Therapy with Samantha balances reflection and skill-building, helping clients better understand their experiences while also developing tools they can use outside of sessions.
She has particular experience working with adolescents and young adults who struggle with anxiety, mood symptoms, stress related to school or relationships, and difficulties managing emotions. Samantha also works closely with parents and families, offering guidance and support as they navigate their child’s emotional and developmental needs.
Samantha believes therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and empowering. She works at a steady, thoughtful pace and values creating a space where clients feel respected, understood, and capable of meaningful change.

What is your typical process for working with clients?
The appointment time you reserve through Zocdoc is for a free 15-minute consultation. This brief call gives us a chance to understand what you’re hoping for, answer initial questions, and determine whether working together feels like a good clinical fit.
If we mutually agree to move forward, a full therapy session will be scheduled at a later time.
Prior to your first full session, you’ll receive intake and consent forms through our secure client portal (SimplePractice). Completing these forms in advance helps ensure your session can be used fully and effectively. Appointments will be cancelled if intake paperwork is not completed before the scheduled session.
Our goal is to offer thoughtful, well-paced care from the very beginning, and clear preparation helps support that process.
