Hi! I'm Dr. Samantha Schindelheim, DSW, LCSW-R and I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York and New Jersey specializing in working with young children, teens, young adults and parents struggling with mood and anxiety issues, parenting, trauma, behavioral issues, and interpersonal challenges. I integrate a variety of evidence-based interventions to help individuals function successfully in their home, school, and communities. 
 

I am a clinical psychologist in private practice on the Upper West Side. I have 20 years of experience providing psychotherapy to adolescents, adults, and couples. In my experience, the relationship between the patient and the therapist is critical to the success of treatment: Patients need to feel safe, respected, and understood in order to do the work of therapy. I strive to establish a supportive, collaborative, and honest relationship that encourages growth and change.

I've been in private practice since 1999, working with adolescents and adults of all ages in individual, couples, and group therapy. I have a special interest in working with college students, recent college graduates, and emerging adults. I also provide clinical supervision to psychotherapists at varied stages of practice and experience, including candidates pursuing psychoanalytic training, LMSWs working toward New York State licensure, and seasoned social workers, psychologists, and psychoanalysts.

I hold a Doctorate of Social Welfare (DSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) from New York University’s Silver School of Social Work, where I also became certified in social work field instruction. I holds a Certificate in Psychoanalysis from the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Study Center (PPSC), and am a graduate of The Women’s Therapy Centre Institute (WTCI), which trains clinicians to help women with eating problems and body image issues.

I’m a psychotherapist with over two decades of experience helping individuals, couples, and families move through the complex and often contradictory realities of being human. My work is grounded in psychodynamic exploration and shaped by a strengths-based belief that people aren’t starting from scratch—they already hold the insight, resilience, and inner resources needed for healing. Therapy offers the support and perspective that allow those parts to emerge.

I draw from a broad and flexible range of modalities—DBT, IFS, AF-EMDR, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and addiction-informed approaches—so the work is responsive, intuitive, and tailored to each person’s needs and inner rhythm.

Collaboration is central to my practice. Clients thrive when the professionals supporting them are aligned, so I welcome close partnership with other clinicians to create thoughtful, coordinated care. I also provide supervision and consultation for therapists who want to deepen their clinical thinking and show up for their clients with clarity, consistency, and humanity.

I have worked extensively with children, adults, and couples, navigating anything from life stressors to acute and ongoing traumas, to a desire to simply feel more connected to yourself and others

I take a warm and collaborative approach to therapy with a strong belief that the therapeutic alliance between the therapist and client is paramount to the client's work. I welcome clients of all backgrounds and lived experiences. I am skilled working with individuals struggling with intense emotions/behaviors, I am effective with clients who have not succeeded in previous therapy. With specialized training through PSI I am uniquely equipped for issues surrounding anxiety, depression, low self esteem, family conflicts as well as individual struggles.
