Get the care you deserve.
Samantha Dienno, LPC, LMHC
I’ve struggled with my own mental health issues over the years, and therapy has been a key part of my healing and growth. I want to help others on their own journey, to find the success that I’ve found. It inspired me to change careers and obtain my Master’s in Counseling at St. Edward’s University. I currently hold a counseling license in Texas and Washington.
I have over 12 years experience working in “corporate America” and managing staff, so I understand the stress this environment can bring to my clients. I have worked with varying levels of mental health concerns in hospital, community and agency settings, including assisting clients in crisis.
I bring a mix of compassion and humor into my sessions. I challenge my clients to dig deeper. You came here to find relief, so let’s get the work done. I will be my unique, goofy self in session, and you should do the same.
I’m a big fan of my two boys, loudly cheering them on from the sideline at football or baseball games. When I have downtime, I like to “geek” out on fantasy/sci-fi shows and wrestle with my dogs.
Be your Authentic Self
We learn to wear “masks” in our daily lives to fit others’ expectations or to protect ourselves from harm. In counseling, you will learn that you are allowed to be yourself, free from the judgement of others. It is your safe place to feel whatever emotions come up, without someone telling you it’s wrong.
I have strong experience working with men, those with more severe and acute mental health concerns, and persons with a history of criminal justice intervention. I’m LGBTQ+ affirming and allied, and I also enjoy working with individuals struggling with self-empowerment.
