Dr. Samantha Fitzgerald Mental Health Counselor - Limited Permit

Dr. Samantha Fitzgerald, Mental Health Counselor - Limited Permit, P121262 is practicing under the supervision of Kayla Kalousdian (New York, LMHC, 011984) at Humantold.

Please, note: A clinician listed as being “clinically supervised” is completing clinical hours toward their licensure. They have one or more fully licensed clinical supervisors that often have special training. They consult with their supervisor(s) on all of their cases.

I am a very positive person, which translates into session through recognizing clients' strengths and staying solution-focused when obstacles arise in their lives.

I take a collaborative approach when setting treatment goals. Asking the client what they are looking to achieve through therapy as well as highlighting patterns that are causing distress. Therapy goals are dynamic and change over time, I check in with clients on a routine basis to reassess goals and make adjustments where needed.

Much of my work history has been in forensic settings working with people with co-occurring diagnoses and whom are involved in the criminal justice system. This has shaped my clinical approach into a more eclectic modality as I have seen the importance of individuality in treatment planning. In individual settings I work frequently with people with ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, depression, anxiety, stress, and trauma.
