Samantha Goodin, MS, LPCA, CTTP

Hi! I’m Sam. I bet you’re wondering how I got here. For me, it started in 2018 after I began my BS in Psychology. Then, in May 2025, I gained my MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and was officially licensed shortly after. Currently, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPCA), as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), dedicated to helping clients navigate, process, and grow beyond what life has brought your way. Your resiliency has already proven your strength. Now, let's step into a season of growth and living your most fulfilled life, on your terms.

Why would we be a good fit? Great question, I'd love to tell you. Trust me, I know I’m what some would say, “fresh off the press”. However, I am very passionate about understanding how trauma & the human experience shapes us, our emotions, relationships, and sense of self. I am constantly learning through new innovative trainings, my clients, and my lived experiences. I mainly practice what's known as Person-Centered Therapy, which in English means that I show up human-to-human, and you're the expert on your own lived experiences. Instead, I work as a relational guide to help resolve the things we've been stuck in. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), for those of you still reading.
In any walk of life, I believe that healing begins with awareness, or recognizing patterns that we determine no longer suit who we want to be. It is not a destination, but rather a journey to embark on, and thankfully you don’t have to do it alone! I promise, there's nothing "wrong" with you and you are not a car that needs to be fixed. In our sessions, we'll work together to create space for growth, breaking cycles, and reclaiming yourself and your strength. This is done in a collaborate space to ensure it is both on your terms, and timing that doesn't feel like we're ripping a rug from underneath you. If you've made it this far, keep going, reach out to begin the next steps of your journey :)
