Samantha Mandala, LCSW, LCADC, PMH-C

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in psychology, I am deeply committed to providing compassionate, individualized care to every client. I believe in tailoring therapy to meet each person’s unique needs and walking alongside them as their biggest supporter on their journey—no matter where that path leads.

 

I specialize in perinatal mental health, working with individuals who are navigating challenges such as postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD, infertility, traumatic births, miscarriages, and stillbirths. I take a strengths-based approach in my practice, integrating cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy to support clients in addressing their emotional needs and building coping strategies. Psychoeducation and tangible tools are also key components of my sessions, empowering clients to take an active role in their healing process.

​

In addition to my work with perinatal clients, I also provide therapy for adolescents and adults (ages 13+), and have extensive experience in supporting those dealing with domestic violence, addiction, and related challenges. My education includes a Bachelor’s in Psychology from Boston University, a Master’s in Social Work from Monmouth University, and a Certification in Perinatal Mental Health from Postpartum Support International.

​

I consider it an honor to accompany my clients through their most difficult times, providing a safe and nurturing environment where they can heal, grow, and thrive.
