Samantha Johnson, M.A.

Samantha is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist. Within the therapeutic space, she invites each client to explore their thoughts and emotions, recognize recurring themes and relational patterns, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves. Her focus is on relationships and how some of our earliest interactions with our caregivers can shape our expectations for ourselves and the world around us.

She has experience working with individuals, couples, and families, addressing issues such as anxiety and depression, sexual abuse, trauma, unresolved grief, recovery from addiction, and challenges within foster parenting and adoption. She is also a Prepare and Enrich facilitator, offering premarital and newlywed counseling for couples.

Samantha holds a Master degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University and a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from California State University, Los Angeles.
