Intro

Hello! My name is Samantha Dale and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of New York. I enjoy providing a compassionate and collaborative space where individuals can feel heard and move towards their therapeutic goals.

What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

Many neurodivergent adults did not have access to resources and support growing up that today's youth do; this has fueled my passion for creating a supportive and inclusive space for individuals with autism.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

My approach as a therapist centers on viewing each person as capable, resourceful and resilient. The aim of this affirming and strengths-based approach is to create a positive space that encourages and respects discovery and individuality. I truly believe that positive change happens through an empowering and supportive environment, which then fosters every individual to feel seen, heard, understood and most of all, worthy of such positive change.
