Sam earned her Bachelor’s degree from the College of Charleston in South Carolina and a combined Master of Arts and Master of Social Work from the University of Denver.

Dakota provides a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their unique experiences and challenges. He values understanding each person’s individual background and story, shaping his approach to meet their specific needs.

Whether clients are facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, or major life transitions, Dakota supports clients in building resilience and discovering their inner strengths. He supports clients in identifying and building personalized strategies that foster growth and healing at their own pace and in their own way. 

Having experienced periods of self-doubt, uncertainty, and significant life changes himself, Dakota understands the complexity of these challenges on a personal level. His own journey has deepened his empathy and informs the compassionate way he supports clients through their healing process.
