Samantha Suggs-Brown, LMSW BIO

I am a Licensed Masters Social Worker currently working towards my License in Clinical Social Work. I completed both my Bachelor's degree in Human Development and Psychology and my master's in social work at the State University of Binghamton. With over 9 years of experience, I have a diverse background in supporting children, adolescents, young adults, couples, and families. My expertise includes assisting individuals with a range of diagnoses, such as ADHD, ODD, Intermittent Explosive Disorder, Conduct Disorder, PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorders.

Specializing in addressing various behavioral issues like anger management, suicidal ideation, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, psychotic disorders, trauma-related stressors, dissociative disorders, and complicated grief, I hold certifications in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mental Health First Aid, Motivational Interviewing, and Behavior Modification. My work involves closely supporting children and adolescents who have faced trauma, neglect, and abuse, as well as guiding parents through the challenges of parenting in difficult circumstances. In both group and individual sessions, I offer a warm, empathetic, and collaborative therapeutic style. Believing in creating a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts and

emotions openly, I draw from evidence-based modalities like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Play Therapy (EFT). I customize my approach to meet each individual's unique needs and objectives. Whether you're navigating relationship challenges, coping with anxiety or depression, or

seeking personal growth, I am here to support you. I value collaboration and partnership, fostering a safe and nurturing environment where healing and growth can thrive. Together, we will cultivate insight, resilience, and positive change. Committed to continuous professional development, I am grateful for the opportunity to empower others on their journey towards improved well-being. If you're ready to take the next step towards a happier, healthier life, reach out to schedule a consultation. I eagerly anticipate partnering with you on your path to healing and transformation, finding great fulfillment in the impactful work I do each day.
