Welcome!
I'm Samantha Haling, Licensed Professional Counselor and owner of Free Bird Counseling PLLC.
As a therapist, I am most passionate about getting to the root of present-day issues. My approach centers around empowering you to access your inner resources, build your support system and community, and tap into your innate ability to heal.
Whether you are looking to address past trauma, find support in navigating a major life change, or build resiliency, confidence and self-compassion, counseling can be an important first step.
I look forward to meeting you and beginning our work together.
Therapy offers the opportunity to build a unique relationship where all parts of you can be heard and treated with genuine respect and curiosity.
