Samantha Blaustein

My approach is integrative and client-centered, helping clients explore their stories, identify strengths, and build effective coping strategies. I strive to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can examine patterns, develop healthier perspectives, and take meaningful steps toward well-being.

Together we will work to build insight and practical coping skills to manage stressors, with the goal of implementing strategies that foster resilience, self-awareness, and overall well-being. I support clients in strengthening their capacity to navigate challenges and enhance quality of life.

My clients describe me as empathetic, attentive, and supportive. They often say I listen deeply, provide clarity, and help them feel understood and respected. I’m seen as collaborative, trustworthy, and encouraging, offering guidance with compassion while empowering clients to explore, grow, and heal.

I provide client-centered, evidence-informed therapy and am passionate about supporting clients in their personal growth and well-being. I work with young adults, adults, and older adults experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges, using a collaborative approach to understanding each client’s situation.

I hold a Master’s degree from the University of Southern California and a Bachelor’s in Sociology. I’m a Certified Yoga Practitioner supporting clients with chronic health concerns and lifestyle management. My start in healthcare technology gave insight into provider and patient needs and shapes my holistic, client-centered approach to therapy.
