About Samantha

Samantha Prince is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 11 years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She centers her work in cognitive behavioral therapy while drawing on complementary methods such as dialectical behavior therapy and EMDR to address issues like addiction, anxiety and depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and grief. Her approach emphasizes building a strong therapeutic connection and tailoring communication and interventions to each person's needs.

She has focused experience treating a wide range of concerns including stress, self-esteem struggles, intimacy-related issues, bipolar and other mood disorders, substance use challenges, and family or interpersonal problems. Additional areas she addresses include body image, chronic illness and pain, codependency, impulsivity, infidelity, and anger.

Samantha combines practical skill-building with trauma-informed techniques to help clients manage symptoms and navigate life transitions. Prospective clients can expect a collaborative, individualized process that respects pacing and readiness.

Samantha aims to make beginning therapy straightforward and comfortable, guiding people through the initial steps so they can focus on goals and meaningful change.

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Many clients benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy because it focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior and developing practical skills to reduce distress and build healthier routines. DBT adds skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship challenges. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that works with memory processing to reduce the ongoing impact of traumatic events and related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help assess a client's needs, goals, and preferences and will adapt methods or combine strategies as appropriate so care fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule consistent sessions around work, family, or other commitments. These options can increase access and make it simpler to continue treatment during life transitions while retaining the same licensed professional guidance one would expect in traditional care.
