02 · In Samuel's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
Hello! I’m so glad you’re here. I bring over 12 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges, and I believe therapy should feel like a collaborative, nonjudgmental space where you can explore, heal, and grow.
I hold a B.A. in Classics with an emphasis on ancient languages from Texas Tech University (2010) and an M.A. in Clinical/Counseling Psychology from Midwestern State University (2012). Over the years, I’ve worked in a wide range of roles - from individual counseling to forensic assessment to clinical supervision - and I’ve supported clients facing everything from trauma and anxiety to identity exploration and life transitions.
My primary therapeutic approach is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on helping you live a life aligned with your deepest values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings show up. I also draw from other modalities like psychodynamic therapy, motivational interviewing (MI), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and wilderness wellness techniques, tailoring my approach to your unique needs and goals.
As a queer-affirming, LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC-inclusive therapist, I am deeply committed to creating a space where all identities and experiences are honored and supported. I understand that healing often means navigating not just personal struggles, but also the weight of societal pressures, cultural expectations, and systems that may have left you feeling unseen or unheard.
Whether you’re here to work on mental health challenges, explore your identity, build coping tools, or reconnect with your sense of purpose, I’m here to walk alongside you. Together, we can create a path forward that feels authentic, empowered, and grounded in who you truly are.

03 · What happens next
Samuel practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Samuel's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Samuel at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Samuel is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Samuel.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Provenance
Samuel's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.
The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.
Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Samuel. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
