Sam Sinn, Lcsw

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


I'm Sam, a therapist with over 20 years of experience specializing in trauma, substance

use and addiction recovery, anxiety, and depression. I grew up and trained in Arizona —

earning my MSW from Arizona State University — and I've spent my career working with

people navigating some of the hardest chapters of their lives. I have been a clinical director at several clinics over the past 6 years while also providing direct care. I work with adults,

adolescents, children, and seniors, and I provide affirming care for clients who identify as

LGBTQ+ or those navigating gender identity and transgender experience. My style is

energetic, open-minded, and genuinely empowering — I believe therapy should leave

you with more than just insight. You should leave with skills you can actually use.
