"Thank you for ALL your support in all the areas!When I first started working with Samantha, I came with suppressed trauma that had started to seep out in different areas of my life. From the very beginning, our sessions felt personable and safe—she made me feel truly seen and heard every time we connected. Representation matters, and being able to talk to someone who understands the unique pressure of filling all the roles expected of a Black woman helped me feel less alone. Working with Samantha feels like a real, down-to-earth conversation about life. I always walk away with practical tools and insight I can apply, and she challenges me in the most loving, honest way. This journey hasn’t been easy, but I’m grateful not to walk it alone."- B.W.

 

"Samantha has been a great therapist to work with. I was recommended to her by a friend.This was my first time receiving therapy from a licensed therapist and I was really nervous. She helped me to relax and open up so that she could help me figure out tools to cope with things in my life. The tools she has provided I use daily and it has greatly helped my outlook on what I need to do so I can maintain a healthy mental state.I am thankful to have someone who I can relate to while receiving help.I have recommended Samantha to friends and family as well during my journey and she has helped us all." -K.W.

 

"Samantha has been a great help in assisting me with transitioning to adulthood while working through my childhood trauma. As a young adult, I was nervous about going into therapy because I didn't want to be misunderstood or judged. Samatha is the opposite. She speaks to me in a way that I relate to and makes me feel safe". D.D.

 

"Since I’ve been seeing Samantha I’ve been in my happy place. I’m not saying my problems are gone but I’m learning to handle them differently. The first session I had with Samantha she spoke life into and spoke to the power within me so that I could change my situation. I knew what type of therapist I wanted but God knew who I needed." H.R.

 

"I hope this email finds you well.I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the exceptional therapy services you have provided. Your guidance and support have positively impacted me on my growth, both professionally and personally. I am incredibly thankful for the progress I have made with your help.I also wanted to inform you that after our upcoming consultation , I have decided to take a pause on therapy sessions. I feel that I have reached a point where I no longer need ongoing therapy at this time. This decision is a testament to the effectiveness of your counseling, and I truly appreciate everything you have done for me. "H.S.

 

"Your service has made such a difference in my life. Thank you for your kindness, professionalism and care during some of the hardest times of my adult life. I wish more people realized that therapy is life changing and that there are people like you who can assist with starting to live and experience a better and higher quality life." E.H.

 

"We were so fortunate to find Ms. Allison. Our daughter was having multiple panic attacks a week and we didn't know where to turn. After creating a relationship with Ms. Allison and using the tools provided our daughter has been able to decrease her therapy sessions and function daily without panic attacks. When she is having a difficult time she is able to use the techniques taught to her and is able to persevere.  We are forever grateful for Mrs. Allison-Evans. " V.H.

 

"Samantha I want to take this time and say THANK YOU for everything you've done for our family. My daughter has overcome many obstacles and she's really in a great place mentally. I appreciate your time and dedication for helping adolescents cope with their difficulties in a contrasting manner. I can't thank you enough, you’re the greatest ."B.E.

 

"Before I started therapy I was having 2-3 panic attacks a week and was not able to cope with anything. Now I have been taught many coping skills and have learned to understand my anxiety more to help me through out my day. I can now do my everyday activities and know what to do when I struggle with them. Having someone to talk to who looks like me made opening up easier because I know that she could relate and I wouldn’t be judged." T.H.

 

"There have been very dark times in my life that I've been reluctant to deal with. Most of the time I would bottle up my emotions and isolate myself from family & friends.  Upon meeting Samantha, I really enjoyed her transparency and still do. She is able to really dig into the root cause of my issues (suicidal ideations, eating disorders, personality dissociation, and weight loss/gain) and hold me accountable in a non-condescending manner. I really am so grateful that she tells me the hard truths that I don't want to admit to myself. I highly recommend her services for anyone struggling with body image or self compassion because she has helped me so much in those topics and more. I don't know where I would be without her guidance." D. G.
