About
Shmuel is a sensitive and caring licensed social worker who is passionate about helping people improve their mental health. He has specific training in using creative arts modalities and in trauma-informed therapy. Shmuel believes that many mental health challenges stem from early childhood emotional wounds that interfere with our day-to-day functioning and play out as unhealthy coping skills. Shmuel practices a humanistic approach to therapy, which focuses on building a safe and secure therapeutic relationship and viewing the client as the expert of their own lives. In his free time, Shmuel loves to spend time in nature and with friends, hike, cliff-jump, travel, paint, ride his motorcycle, and practice yoga and improv.

Why you are passionate about your job?
Shmuel is aware of the immense suffering of struggling with one's mental health. Sometimes, it can feel very isolating and like one is all alone in their pain. No one should have to go through this pain all alone. Shmuel wants to see a world where it is OK (and even cool) to be struggling with one's mental health and where people feel safe sharing it with others. Shmuel wants to help people heal from their traumas so that they can live better lives and be a light to those around them.
