More about Samantheo

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCMHC

Hello and Welcome. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina; and have over 15 years of experience in the mental health and academic (higher education) setting. My primary experience within these settings includes academic, personal, and career counseling. I am also equipped to address issues centered around depression, stress and anxiety, self-esteem and body image, parenting problem, relationship issues, etc.

My counseling style is warm, genuine, and interactive. I strive to develop a trusting relationship with each client; and work to maintain an environment consisting of unconditional positive regard and empathy. Together, we will explore how certain thoughts and beliefs can produce negative or painful feeling and maladaptive behaviors. Then process and guide individuals through the exploration of solutions already present within their lives in order to address solve current challenges. I believe in treating people with dignity, respects, and compassion; while utilizing a range of therapeutic modalities that focus on the client and their needs. Treating the whole individual is my main focus and will work with the client to ensure that you reach your full potential.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
