Mariah Samuels, LCSW

CT LCSW Mariah Samuels has three years of clinical experience in Connecticut helping adults who face stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and the aftereffects of trauma and abuse. She focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Mariah works with concerns that include self-esteem and issues specific to women and young adults.

She also helps people affected by domestic violence, fertility-related stress, family problems, and post-traumatic stress. Her work uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to build resilience and strengthen coping skills. Sessions focus on identifying concrete patterns, practicing new ways of responding, and building self-love in everyday life.

Mariah uses culturally responsive care that recognizes how race and identity shape people's experiences. That means paying attention to how social and personal factors interact, and bringing those realities into the conversation in straightforward terms. She aims to address both immediate symptoms and the longer-term effects of trauma.

In a typical meeting she helps clients name the problem, try manageable strategies, and track what changes. She explains tools in plain language and practices them together in session. The emphasis is on developing skills clients can use between meetings.

People who value direct, practical work that acknowledges identity and life context may find this approach helpful. To start, follow the site process to view online therapy options and schedule a first session.
