About

Life is filled with many ups, downs, and uncertainties creating overwhelming stress, anxiety, and changes in one's mood. I am here to help you navigate your way through your journey towards healing, and wholeness, and to thrive in life. I offer therapy for those who may be experiencing life changes or transitions, having difficulties in their personal relationships, depression, anxiety, and other challenges that may be affecting their thoughts, mood, and/or quality of life. My experiences have given me the valuable opportunity to work with people from diverse cultural, ethnic, and sexual backgrounds. My name is Samantha McGirt. I am licensed in NC and GA. I am an integrative therapist and my therapeutic approach includes Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mind-Body Therapeutic Approaches, and others to provide my clients with effective coping skills. I specialize in providing therapy to those experiencing or have experienced trauma/high levels of stress, PTSD, anxiety, mood disorders, life/workplace stress, life transitions, etc. My client base includes but is not limited to First Responders/Medical Professionals, Educators, Women Dealing with Hormonal-based Mood Disorders or Perinatal concerns, Parents, Corporate employees, military personnel, military spouses, and anyone simply in need of therapy. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive and culturally sensitive environment where we can explore your concerns, develop goals, discover strengths, and develop coping strategies. The therapeutic relationship can be a vehicle for change; therefore, I am dedicated to providing the best clinical services to meet your needs.
