Counseling with Samuel

:: Experience ::
Licensed Professional Counselor, Mental Health Service Provider (TN License #2618)

I specialize in working with men who are wrestling with what it means to be a man, sexual integrity, addictions, relationship or work issues, and anger management. I challenge men to explore their masculinity by challenging pervasive, and sometimes harmful, cultural stereotypes.

I help women who are looking to find and reclaim their voice in their relationships, working through issues of sexual, physical, or emotional abuse, difficulty in family relationships, self esteem, and codependency.

Couples have five areas of content they fight about: Sex, kids, money, in-laws, and technology. Each couple has a unique process they follow as they attempt to resolve these issues. I guide couples through these difficult and sometimes perpetual issues to find hope, healing, and a new process. Together we will sort through these and other challenges to foster mutual love and respect. I help couples to identify and move beyond their negative patterns of relating and construct new relational styles built upon honesty, respect, responsibility, and vulnerability.

“Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him or around him and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.” ~ Dostoevsky
