Samantha Burns, LPC – Clinical Supervisor
Primary Therapist
About
Samantha holds a passionate belief that caring for our mental health is as important as our physical health as they directly impact one another.
As we live in a fast-paced society, we can benefit from slowing down and reconnecting back to ourself. Therapy can help to increase our awareness into our mind-body connection, which in turn provides ourselves the opportunity to learn practices to help manage unpleasant thoughts and feelings in the present moment while promoting health and well-being.
Samantha believes it is important to “practice what we preach”. In her downtime, she enjoys practicing yoga, getting outside as much as possible, and spending time with family and friends in an effort to focus on her own well-being.

She has held her RYT with the Yoga Alliance since 2017. Samantha has a passion for offering treatment in both individual and group settings.
