Sam Wilson, LCSW, is a compassionate clinical social worker and therapist serving clients in Oregon and Maryland. For those feeling trapped by circumstances beyond their control or struggling with persistent negative thoughts, Sam offers a safe space where one can catch their breath and explore the ideas that might feel strange or risky. Through talk therapy, he helps clients devise new strategies for reconnecting with their best selves. Sam practices Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, a contemporary approach that aligns scientific understanding of behavior with personal experiences and societal roles. He recognizes that while we may not have complete control over our thoughts and feelings, we retain the power to take action. Sam’s treatment style embraces this philosophy. He understands that the burdens of mental health and neurological disorders extend beyond symptoms; they involve the judgment faced in various aspects of life. Processing these feelings is central to healing and a significant focus of his practice.
