I feel very honored for the opportunity to care for others. I understand that mental and physical health are connected and are shaped by our past. I believe that psychiatric treatment works.

Something Beautiful Counseling was built around a simple belief: that healing is possible for everyone, and therapy should feel like a real partnership — not a clinical process you're being put through.

I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors on anxiety, depression, OCD, eating concerns, PTSD, grief, relationship challenges, and family stress. I also offer couples therapy through a Solution-Focused approach. Whether you're carrying something heavy or just need support navigating life's transitions, there's a place here for you.

I have been a therapist since 2008. I have experience working with child and adolescent mental health, families and trauma. I am trained in several modalities including child parent relational therapy, play therapy, CBT, TF- CBT and person-centered therapy. I also work with adults with an emphasis on managing stress and supporting clients in reaching their best version of themselves. I believe in the power of empathy and resilience to foster positive change.

My name is Samantha McKenzie and I'm a Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP). I specialize in treating OCD, eating disorders, and anxiety disorders. A lot of my clients also struggle with perfectionism, depression, and self-criticism. I help them identify their inner critic and separate themselves from the OCD and eating disorder. I also have a special interest in working with athletes and helping them navigate the unique challenges that they face in sport; on and off the field/court.

Many of my clients are women who are used to holding everything together while quietly feeling anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected underneath it all. They often come to therapy struggling with anxiety, burnout, stress, relationship challenges, people-pleasing, self-worth issues, or unresolved past experiences. I provide culturally responsive virtual therapy that feels warm, grounded, and collaborative. Together, we work toward healthier emotional patterns, stronger coping skills, greater clarity, and a more sustainable sense of balance and confidence.
