About me

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about your life? Are your relationships or past experiences causing pain or confusion? You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. I specialize in guiding individuals ready for a transformative process of healing and self-discovery. If you’re seeking to unlock your full potential and move past obstacles, I’m here to support you. My approach is rooted in empathy and compassion, providing a safe space where we can explore the deeper issues affecting your life. Together, we’ll uncover insights that help you better understand yourself and your relationships on a more profound level. Let’s work towards creating the fulfilling life you deserve.

My professional experience began over 20 years ago at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center in Baltimore. I specialize in helping individuals heal from abuse, trauma, and loss. With many years of experience and a wealth of personal and professional insights, I bring both knowledge and deep empathy to help you challenge the limiting beliefs rooted in your subconscious.

I have been in therapy for just a few sessions with Sam and she is by far the best i love her honest open personality it feels like i am talking to a friend which helps to get my emotions out. She is professional and guides me and provides tools that i need in certain situations .

Samantha is amazing. She is a great listener gives the best advice. Helped me ease my anxiety and find the right strategies that work for me. It’s bittersweet that I am having my last session with her tomorrow BUT it’s because of her continued support that I was able to overcome my struggles. Thank you for everything Samantha!

Samantha Schwartz is easy to talk to, helps bring out different point of views with the current situation, like "that may be worse case scenario."

Samantha has helped me through many challenges for a few years now. I have every confidence in her expertise. She is caring, listens and shares her experience to help me navigate my own obstacles

It’s like talking to a best friend that I don’t have to worry will judge me. Samantha is insightful, helpful, and our sessions never feel like “work” or an “appointment”. I feel heard, validated, guided and “lighter” after our conversations and genuinely look forward to them, which makes sticking to therapy all the more easy for someone like me- who typically flakes out on things. Absolutely love my time with Samantha !
