ABOUT SAMANTHA KEMP CARLIN
I am a licensed mental health counselor and certified LGBTQ Affirmative Psychotherapist. As a queer- and neurodivergent-identified therapist, I am passionate about working with folks who have experienced oppression, marginalization, and stigma related to their identities. I strive to be culturally aware and to address each client and their unique needs through the use of a variety of techniques including ACT, DBT, expressive art, and harm reduction strategies. As a Certified Geek Therapist, I love incorporating client interests like superheroes, video games, tabletop role playing games, anime, and other fandoms into evidence based approaches to enhance the therapeutic experience and outcomes. My previous clinical work includes providing trauma-informed therapy to transition age youth (ages 16-25) including former foster youth experiencing chronic homelessness, extreme poverty, abuse, human trafficking, addiction, and other adversities. I am an Approved Clinical Supervisor with experience supervising master’s-level clinical interns and temporary licensed clinicians. I have provided training on a variety of LGBTQ+ topics including Safe Zone and the basics of gender affirming care. I have training and experience in implementing DEI strategies at the agency level.
