Samantha Southard

Mental Health Counselor, LMHC

Hi there! My name is Samantha, aka The Blonde Therapist, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in New York. I believe in challenging the notion of a "blank slate therapist, and encompass my own personality into my role as a therapist. I understand that therapy cannot utilize a "one size fits all" approach in order to best meet the needs of each client.  I work with teens, young adults, and adult women who may be struggling with anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, relationship issues, and people-pleasing tendencies.

Zena Watson

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

I am a psychotherapist who specializes in working with survivors of trauma, violence, and childhood abuse and neglect, with a particular commitment to serving people of color and queer and gender non-conforming people. With a background in dance and movement therapy, I use an eclectic approach, combining "talk therapy" with somatic therapy for individuals still looking to find the words or to reclaim control of their bodies and lives. I am an interactive, non-judgmental, down-to-earth, and empathic therapist who believes that your experiences, however painful or chaotic, are worthy of being paid attention to. I can assist you in finding expression and healing and reclaiming your true self and life.
