Sometimes it takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take those steps, I am here to support you. I am a Clinical Psychologist practicing on the BetterHelp internet platform. My approach to becoming a psychotherapist has been influenced by many years of formal education in psychology, exposure to multiple clinical training perspectives, and perhaps most importantly, my inherent curiosity toward understanding how and why I, and my fellow humans, behave and feel the way we do! When I begin working with you, I will gently attempt to understand how you are feeling both physically and emotionally. You and I will discover how you are feeling in a given moment, with emphasis on the importance of remembering that "feelings change." This will help if, or when, you may feel overwhelmed and alone with depression, anxiety, loneliness, or sadness, etc. You will gradually begin to notice that your feelings, and relationships with family and friends can improve! Over all, this process will enable you to develop greater appreciation for yourself, which naturally leads to greater enjoyment and attachment to others.
If this description of how I work as a therapist resonates with what you are looking for as a client, let’s meet in the mode with which you are most comfortable (Text, Chat, or Virtual) and see how it goes. I look forward to meeting you!
Dr. Sam Hopper
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Samuel Hopper. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I have been only seeing Dr. Hopper for six months now however in this time he has created an extremely comfortable and safe space for us to talk openly about issues I might not have talked about otherwise. I feel he listens and seems to understand my problems but also is interested in making my life better by making me open up and talk about greatly uncomfortable events from my past without judgment. He is insightful and our sessions make me think deeply about myself from new perspectives at times. He has helped create a light at the end of my dark tunnel and every session gets that light a little closer and a little brighter.

I have had 2 sessions so far with Dr Hopper.
He listens well and really helps me by listening and helping me identify issues and looking at them in a different way so that I can start to understand why and where things went wrong. I strongly recommend him because I am very comfortable with him and I know as we continue our sessions I believe I was find peace and healing

In my experience so far with Dr. Hopper, I find him to be very empathetic and understanding. I feel he is present at every moment and really listens to me. I recommend him to anyone. He has a "kind father" appeal to him that I think will resonate for a lot of people. He is my primary (only) therapist on this platform and plan to keep it that way.

Dr Hopper is an extremely empathic listener. He gives good advice at helpful times. He’s on time and gracious with his time.
I enjoy speaking with him and recommend him. I look forward to his help as I navigate my difficulties.

Dr. Hopper is a kind person who works hard to get to the root of my issues. He has helped me find solutions for improving my work life and marriage. He is a good listener and has helped me work through various scenarios that I have struggled with. I was a lot happier now than when I started therapy. He has not pushed anything on me but has led me to a lot of useful information (ie. transcendental meditation as a means of overcoming stresses of work and enduring toxic environments/individuals). I come away from each session feeling strong. I would recommend Dr. Hopper to anyone.

Dr. Hopper is the best therapist I've ever had. We made so much progress in just 6 months. He's asks thought provoking questions, genuinely cares for you, and is good about gently challenging you. I've changed a lot, and I've changed for the better, and this wouldn't be true if I didn't have Dr. Hopper as my therapist.

I have found Samuel Hopper very helpful in terms of helping me deal with depression . He offers plenty of support and helps me understand what I need to do to deal with my situation. I like his low key style.

Fantastic therapist! Dr. Hopper is a great listener, super insightful, and an extremely wise man overall. In only a few sessions, he has already provided a great deal of clarity on some major psychological issues that have plagued me for years. I'm so grateful to have found him.

First session was really good, the second was where I was lost; it was as if I was brand new and he had never talked to me before. Disappointing.

Only a few sessions in, but I greatly appreciate Dr. Hopper's help in steering me towards new insights into things about myself. I always thought I was self-aware, but there a lot of things I never really noticed (or gave thought to) that have given me new perspectives as to why and how I do what I do.

Sam has great approach to the multiple situations that have come up since I started the session. His experience and expertise have helped me navigate emotions I haven’t experience before. And have been able to take the beast approach for me and the ones around me.

Dr. Hopper is very encouraging. I am very happy he has stayed with me on this wellness journey. I enjoy our sessions and feel like I can be my true self and express myself however I need to. No shame. Makes me feel empowered and valued as an individual. It is ok to be sad or depressed about something. It is ok to feel how we feel because we are human. Dr. Hopper acknowledges this. That is huge to me! :) I enjoy our sessions!

Dr.Hopper has been a great resource. He understands and feels my pain and has helped me understand certain things about myself by simply asking me questions and helping me come to a self-realization about my issues, mindset, trauma.

Dr. Hopper is the first therapist that makes me feel heard. I've had other good ones in the past, but Dr. Hopper validates my thoughts and feelings, without simply agreeing. He provides very good insight, and I feel happy after talking with him.
