Getting to know Samantha Tomarchio

Ciao, I'm Samantha Elisabetta Tomarchio, LMFT. I am a licensed trauma, sex, and relationship psychotherapist. My work is intersectional, attachment-based, and rooted in somatic awareness of the body with a mindfulness twist. I have extensive experience working with folks who hold multicultural identities, who are part of the LGBTQIA+ population, as well as, though not limited to, those struggling with sexual and sexuality-related intimacy and relationship issues. I earned my Master's in Counseling from the California Institute of Integral Studies and hold a Bachelor's degree from Hofstra University. My approach Sam's approach to psychotherapy involves deepening individuals, couples, and groups in their relationships with themselves, their partner(s), and the families and communities they identify with, through a here-and-now, somatic, and attachment-based lens. As holistic M.D. Gabor Maté expresses, "the impact of trauma is not what happened to us, but what happened inside of us." The healing journey of psychotherapy is about becoming aware of those hurt, disliked, disowned, repressed, and even oppressed parts of ourselves that keep us from expressing our authenticity. The work is to integrate, reclaim, and restore connection with the most authentic parts of ourselves, from the inside out. I offer a trauma-informed, sex-positive, intersectional, and social justice-oriented frame rooted in attachment theory, depth psychology, and body-oriented approaches. My passion lies in helping individuals, couples, families, and groups heal and recover from personal, collective, and intergenerational traumas and ruptures, honoring each person's expression of self from the inside out. My focus My client focus is broad, as I work with a diverse array of folks. I specialize in sex therapy-related issues such as erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, sexual anxiety, gender dysphoria, inorgasmia, painful sex, reigniting desire, sexual trauma, and intimacy challenges.
