Samantha Barkoff, LCSW

I believe in the power of a supportive, therapeutic relationship grounded in attentive listening and mutual respect. Every individual’s experience is unique, and I strive to meet each person where they are—with compassion, curiosity, and care. My goal is to help clients build self-esteem, develop resilience, and feel more equipped to handle life’s transitions and challenges.

Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, bullying, emotional abuse, or simply feeling overwhelmed by daily responsibilities, I offer personalized support rooted in sustainable therapeutic approaches. I provide both in-office and in-home services, integrating social, emotional, behavioral, academic, cognitive, and familial perspectives to create a comprehensive and individualized treatment plan.

I work closely with clients to identify and replace unhelpful language and behaviors, while fostering growth in areas like executive functioning, emotional regulation, and personal empowerment. Through a collaborative process, I help individuals strengthen their coping strategies, improve self-awareness, and move toward a more confident and balanced life.

Wherever you are in your journey, I am here to support and guide you. I look forward to working together to help you grow, heal, and thrive.
