Hi, I’m Dr. Samoya Henry-Pierre-Louis, a licensed clinical social worker and therapist who is passionate about helping individuals heal and grow. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and families, particularly those navigating trauma, anxiety, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, supportive, and practical, while also being direct, honest, and goal-oriented. I use a Christ-centered lens in my work and welcome clients who value incorporating their faith into the healing process.

I'm a licensed mental health counselor with a doctorate in psychology and 20 years of experience working with adults and seniors, including people navigating ADHD, trauma, grief, mood disorders, and major life transitions. My approach is faith-informed: I integrate a Christian worldview into my clinical work for clients who want that, and I offer a secular, evidence-based framework for those who don't. Either way, I take the whole person seriously — not just the symptom. I completed brain health training through the Amen Clinic, which has meaningfully shaped how I think about ADHD and cognitive health in older adults. I'm also a published author: my 2019 book came out of doctoral research on fear, dementia, and the aging mind.

I'm ready to help you get started on your journey!

I received my masters in social work from Adelphi University. I worked as a social work director for a number of years previously but I stopped because I really preferred more face to face time with my patients. I got so much more from my time counseling than being in a management position. Over my 22 years as a social worker, I've come across many people with diverse issues and truly have enjoyed all of my experiences as they helped form the person I am, the therapist I am. Much of my experience is working with anxiety, depression, bereavement, couples counseling, life transitions, stress management, cancer and chronic illness counseling, palliative care counseling, caregiver support and community resource and referral.

People always tell me that I'm a good listener. This is my greatest accomplishment and one I'm most proud of because as your therapist I want to HEAR you. I want to join you in your pain or difficulties and help you find your way through them. I may not have experienced what you have specifically gone through or are facing now, but I know how to find my way in to how you are feeling. Building a therapeutic rapport with you will be my first step. Trust needs to build and then most of my work is generally solution focused and cognitive-behavioral techniques. You will see that I am a caring, non-judgmental person. I would love the chance to help see you through your challenges. You've taken the first step!

I strive to bring a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental approach to therapy. I have been a social worker for 10 years, working with mothers of babies in the neonatal ICU for 5 years, and a mother for over 25 years. Moms go through a lot. Are you a woman seeking to become pregnant? Have you recently experienced a miscarriage or a loss? Are you a mother of young children? I have a strong connection with women in all stages of motherhood, whether you are aspiring to be a mother, find motherhood overwhelming and all-consuming, or have recently suffered a loss. No other loss is quite like the pain of miscarriage and infant loss. In therapy, you will be heard and seen. I'll give you the space to let it all out, and to process what you are going through.

I'm a licensed bilingual psychotherapist with over 12 years of experience licensed in New York, Connecticut, Florida and Maryland. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, family concerns, stressors related to parenting, self-esteem and burnout.

Ash Rearick is a clinical social worker with extensive experience with clients encountering anxiety, depression, and life transitions. As a queer, nonbinary clinician, they enjoy working with queer and gender-diverse clients navigating facets of their identities. Ash has postgraduate training in integrating spirituality into psychotherapy and sex therapy.

I am an experienced Mental Health Counselor with an international background in clinical psychology and research. I am deeply committed to provide help during difficult phases of a person's life journey. I specialize in working with adults navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, identity crisis, and bereavement. I am also experienced in working with couples and the specific challenges they encounter in their relationship.

My approach is unusual because I've worked in large variety of settings. My experience as an executive coach enables me to help people with career issues, relationship dynamics and life transitions. It also means I'm not afraid to give advice. My experience working with young adults has given me a different view on life transitions, and the ability to guide people when they're afraid and feeling unprepared for what life is throwing at them. I'm passionate about my work, and I bring all of my life experience and my decades of clinical training and practice to each client relationship.

I am Samantha Motie, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with four years of experience supporting women through the unique challenges of motherhood. My work focuses on young mothers, single mothers, and individuals navigating perinatal mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and the emotional transitions that come with this stage of life.

I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel seen, heard, and supported. I understand that accessing therapy as a parent—especially with young children at home—can be challenging, so I strive to make the process as adaptable and inclusive as possible. Whether that means flexible scheduling, virtual sessions, or creating space for the realities of parenting during sessions, I aim to meet clients where they are without judgment.
