Samuel Lazarte, Clinical Intern

As a student therapist, I am passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges and build stronger, more meaningful relationships. My clinical focus includes working with couples (including premarital counseling), families, and youth. I support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, and loss of trust, offering a safe, empathetic space where healing and growth can take place.

My approach is grounded in Solution-Focused and Narrative Therapy models. I believe in the importance of recognizing strengths, uncovering preferred stories, and building on what’s already working. I strive to help clients create new meaning from their experiences and take steps toward the life they want to live.

I also integrate mindfulness and present-moment awareness to support emotional regulation and connection. Whether you're working through family dynamics, rebuilding trust in a relationship, or coping with loss, my goal is to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and respect.
