Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Buffalo, NY

Hello! My name is Samantha Olson. I am a licensed psychotherapist dedicated to helping my clients improve relationships and better manage distressing thoughts/emotions.

For more than 10 years, I have worked alongside people navigating serious mental health

challenges, career changes, and the everyday weight of keeping it all together. Whether

you are living with bipolar disorder, processing trauma, or figuring out your next step

professionally or personally, I bring both deep clinical training and lived perspective as a

working parent to our sessions. I would love to connect and start building something that

actually fits your life.

I received a B.A. in Psychology and an M.S. Ed. in Rehabilitation Counseling and Mental Health from Hofstra University. During my practicum and internship in a community clinic, I counseled people from 15-72 years of age with a range of mental health and vocational concerns. I developed a curriculum and led groups to build socialization skills in children ages 8-12. I also led a parenting skills group while at the clinic. As a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, I worked with clients to explore career choices and assist with finding, obtaining, and keeping employment. I am also a Certified Work Incentive Practitioner, which allows me to advise public benefit beneficiaries on their entry or return to competitive employment and its effects on their benefits.

You can have a positive mindset with SOLUTION-FOCUSED THERAPY. Feeling worried, or your thoughts race, your sleep is off, or you get that feeling in your stomach? At times we get frustrated enough with someone that it affects your work, family life, or health. I know how it sucks to be questioning, stuck, and worked up with tension and concern. Then, self-doubt creeps in--but it doesn’t need to be like that anymore. If you’re curious how to get things calmer, under control, and feel more self-assured, I’m here as a confidant who listens deeply AND offers tools that really work. You CAN increase confidence!

Hey - I'm Mike and as you can see from my photo I like to keep things on the more casual side with my clients. I weave fun, jokes, and genuine questions about your personal life into our care plan. If you're looking for a Psychiatric provider who is all business - I'm probably not the right fit. But if you're looking to work with someone who is down to earth, and willing to go the extra mile to be your true partner and confidant on this journey, I'd love to meet you. As a lifelong New Yorker, I understand the unique pressures, pace, and complexity of life here — and I use that insight to offer care that actually fits your world.

I have 10+ years of experience working at 4 New York City Hospitals on Adult Inpatient Psychiatric, Geriatric, Forensic, Detox, PHP, Palliative Care, Medical, Neurology & COVID-19 Units. Individuals on these units experiencing symptoms such as: depression, anxiety, psychosis, dual diagnosis, addiction to drugs and/or alcohol, mania & complex traumas. I have worked with a diverse patient base including various cultures, ethnicities, races, sexualities, and gender identities. It is my belief that humans gain deep insight through verbal psychotherapy, art making, and internal processing which helps facilitate desired life changes.
