Sam Tunis, LMSW (Coming Soon)
I'm drawn to working with people who find themselves at a crossroads. Sometimes it's after a loss, or the beginning of something new. Sometimes it's because the life that once fit simply doesn't anymore. Grief, parenthood, career changes, trauma, relationships, identity - these moments can leave us asking difficult questions: Who am I without this person? Who am I now that I'm a parent? Who am I if I leave this career? Who am I if I'm questioning my sexuality? Therapy can be a place to explore these questions with honesty, curiosity, and compassion - to understand ourselves more deeply, notice the patterns we find ourselves in, and decide how and what, if anything, we'd like to change.
My approach is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and evidence-based. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based practices, and person-centered therapy, believing that meaningful change comes from both practical tools and a relationship where you feel safe enough to be honest, curious, and fully yourself. I take the work seriously, but firmly believe in, and welcome humor in therapy. Before becoming a therapist, I spent many years as a musician, performer, visual artist, and educator, and my creative life continues to shape how I listen, connect, and approach each person's story.
I welcome adults and young people entering adulthood.
