Samantha Parris

Meet Samantha, the licensed professional counselor with a twist of humor! She’s not your average therapist; she’s got a Master’s in counseling and a Specialization in Addiction Services from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. They say laughter is the best medicine, but she’s got more than just jokes up her sleeve.

Samantha is the therapist with a zesty energy and a human empathy machine, cranking out exceptional understanding for the folks she serves. But it’s not all serious business. Her real joy comes from helping clients grow while secretly nurturing their talents for making their own choices.

She’s also assisted clients in foster care, schools, and hospitals. Silu has work experience in coping with depression, self-esteem, and anxiety.
