Getting to know Dr. Samuel Dreeben

I’m Dr. Sam Dreeben, a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in the treatment of social anxiety, OCD, generalized anxiety, stress, men’s issues, codependency, and grief and loss. I’ve trained and mentored many clinicians in practice today and served across clinical and academic settings. I bring that experience—and a deep passion for mental health—to every session. My goal is to help you build a life of purpose, clarity, and freedom. I look forward to supporting you on that journey.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Therapy with me is active and collaborative. Think of it more like physical therapy than a day at the spa: designed to leave you stronger, more resilient, and equipped with tools to live the life you want. I strive to provide an environment that is respectful, honest, warm, and supportive.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My approach is grounded in empirically-supported treatments, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based strategies. At the core of my work is a client-centered philosophy—your goals, values, and growth drive our work together.
