Hello!
My name is Dr. Samantha Schoonover. I am a Licensed Psychologist with over 20 years of experience
My experience in both the public and private sectors has equipped me with a unique set of skills. I has also provided me with an opportunity to work with individuals from numerous backgrounds, philosophies and experiences.
I believe individuals have the strength and skills within them to make positive changes and realize their best selves. However, life often throws us curve balls and our resilient selves get a little lost. It is in these time an outside perspective can help us get back on track. My therapeutic approach focuses on individuals strengths and using brief interventions to help uncover those strengths.
I look forward to working with you on your journey of self-discovery and wellness!

Nervous at first, not my usual route with underlying issues. Downloading this app as it was suggested to me. Meeting her and getting to know her and give this a shot was one of the best choices i have ever made.
I wouldn’t even consider it “therapy”, as it is like I’m waiting for a FaceTime or a phone call with one of my closest friends, the advice is spot on and completely makes a difference in ever day life. It’s comfortable and at your own pace and her personality will light up a room, it’s hard not to smile and change your attitude. I would Recommend her to anyone i know, forever thankful.
