Sam McCann
Sam (she/her, MA, LMHCA) received her Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Antioch University, New England. She is the co-owner of Green Coast Counseling in SeaTac, where she specializes in neurodivergent-affirming therapy for late-diagnosed and self-identified neurodivergent adults. Sam is an empathetic therapist and, being neurodivergent herself, she brings a unique perspective to her practice. With a deep-rooted belief in the importance of dismantling learned behaviors to embrace one's authentic self, she works from a neurodiversity-affirming lens.Sam understands the challenges neurodivergent individuals face in a neurotypical society and strives to create a safe space for her clients to explore their unique identities.
Her approach to therapy is informed by acceptance and commitment therapy and existential philosophy, infusing sessions with humor and an appreciation for life's absurdities. Sam encourages her clients to embrace their quirks and differences, believing that true comfort and fulfillment come from living authentically.
Sam’s special interests are systems, problem-solving, and the human mind. She gets excited whenever she gets the chance to play UNO at home with loved ones (but only if they leave by 10 pm). On weekends, she enjoys playing Stardew Valley, watching comfort/trash TV, or working on random projects and creations. Learn more about Sam here.
