Meet Samhitha/Sam
I am a motivated and empathic registered counsellor. From my early experiences of working in schools, health centres and community organizations, I derive passion through helping people help themselves.
I am currently engaged in youth volunteer work for non-profit organizations and offer services to organizations and private practice.
My life experiences have enabled me to get attuned to clients feeling more empathic.
Being a bilingual counsellor, I value clients from multicultural backgrounds.

Testimonial
Samhitha displayed a patient and nurturing demeanour,
Her ability to establish a strong connection with my son significantly improved his progress. We witness a remarkable improvement in social skills, emotional regulation, and overall quality of life. Samhitha’s commitment to my son and our entire family has made a lasting impact. It is with the utmost confidence and gratitude that I recommend Samhitha’s counselling services.
