About Samantha
Samantha Delisio is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people work through trauma, stress, and relationship struggles. She draws on nine years of clinical experience and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology to create a steady, respectful space for exploration. Samantha aims to help people build stronger emotional connections and clearer self-understanding.
Samantha often uses an attachment-informed perspective to look at how early relationships shaped current patterns.
Background and approach
She pays attention to how people learned to trust, set boundaries, and connect with others. That focus helps when clients bring concerns about parenting, attachment issues, or relationship hurt. She also uses Narrative ideas to help people reframe troubling stories they tell about themselves.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used when people want concrete steps to reduce anxiety or change unhelpful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and client-centered listening are woven in as needed for emotion regulation and supportive reflection.
Samantha has worked with adults and children across a range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, mood struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and body image worries, ADHD, and caregiver strain. She also addresses practical life stresses like money problems, divorce, and blended family issues. Her training includes a graduate Certificate in Infant Mental Health and specialized child-parent approaches for early childhood.
If you are thinking about starting therapy, Samantha asks clients to share their goals so sessions can focus on what matters most.

This approach focuses on patterns of connection, trust, and emotional closeness, and it can help with parenting concerns, intimacy-related struggles, and caregiver stress.
