Practitioner record · Checked 10 Oct 2026
Samuel Myrick has been in practice 10 years and is licensed in Florida. Samuel lists addictions, LGBT and trauma and abuse among 36 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Samuel's own BetterHelp listing, taken from public licensing records, or written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such. Nothing here is an availability promise, a review, or a rating.
01 · Who Samuel works with
Samuel lists 5 specialisms and 31 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Samuel chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.
02 · In Samuel's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
I have worked as a clinician for the last ten years as therapist, with a strong history in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes and exploring how to find a sense of balance between their past, their present, and their hopes for the future. My practice centers on creating affirming, compassionate spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals, young adults, and those experiencing relationship challenges, trauma, and addiction, and I myself am an individual in long-term recovery.
I bring a depth of understanding to issues like self-love, communication barriers, isolation, and personal growth. My approach is deeply client-centered, focusing on healing from shame, managing panic and mood disorders, and supporting healthy relationship dynamics.
With expertise in trauma-informed care, I'm committed to helping clients explore attachment patterns, process difficult experiences, and develop resilient coping strategies. Whether you're struggling with chronic pain, relationship transitions, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I offer a supportive, non-judgmental therapeutic environment.
My goal is to walk alongside you, honoring your unique journey and empowering you to create meaningful, positive change in your life.

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.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Samuel actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Samuel's - Samuel has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”
Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

06 · 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 10 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.
