About Samantha

Samantha Evans is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Minnesota who supports people navigating stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, depression, life transitions, LGBT-related concerns, relationship and family challenges, grief, anger, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She brings a practical, strength-focused approach that emphasizes clients' existing resources while building new skills to manage difficult emotions and situations. Her background includes work across school-based, office-based, and online settings, and she has delivered individual and group therapy in juvenile detention and other community programs.

Samantha spent several years managing group homes and adult foster care and later trained in rehabilitation counseling, gaining experience providing psychotherapy to adolescents and young adults. That varied clinical work informs her collaborative, down-to-earth style, which aims to help clients apply small, manageable changes in daily life.

In sessions she draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral principles, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques to tailor care to each person's priorities. Samantha currently balances adult mental health case management with offering online therapy and seeks to support clients in building resilience and clearer direction amid life’s challenges.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes understanding each person from their own perspective and building a supportive, nonjudgmental space where goals can emerge. This approach helps people feel heard and guides the work toward what matters most to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing concrete skills to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and many stress-related concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding techniques that reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation in daily life.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapt techniques over time as progress and challenges arise. That flexibility helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the individual.

Online formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy days, and practice new skills between meetings with accessible follow-up via messaging.
