Dr. Sam Von Reiche

Was a little nervous since it was my first time seeking counseling but she put me right at ease. Will continue to see.

Over the course of 15 years I have seen many psychologists and psychiatrists for help with depression and anxiety and was deeply discouraged by the 'typical approach' and lack of improvement. I talked about the same stuff and went on the usual meds every time. I am a very successful physician myself, as well as a Yale graduate, but frankly my life continued on a downward spiral. I was forced to conclude that either there was something wrong with the mental health field, or even worse, that I was beyond help.

Working with Dr. Sam Von Reiche has been the single best experience I have ever had--not only in psychotherapy but also one of the best of my life. I truly feel like meeting her was "meant to be". She is not only exceptionally knowledgeable and intelligent, but is also deeply caring, dedicated and professional.

I was actually floored by the positive feelings and results I got with 1 single session with her. And within 2-3 sessions nearly everything started to change. I began to lose weight. I went on very helpful mood supplement that worked almost right away. She diagnosed that I actually had Adult ADD that I had been struggling with all my life that was making my life unmanageable, including compulsive overeating. She also suspected that I was suffering from subclinical hypothyroidism, (which frankly was a big shock because none of my MD had picked up on that). I became more empowered in my marriage and my work environment. Real self esteem started to grow for the first time. My entire life began to transform. And it's only just getting started!

Dr. Sam turned my life around. I found her through a google search when I was at an extreme mental low, and the minute I walked into her office, my life changed. She gave me hope- that I can consistently live a happy, positive life. Her deep intuition, intelligence, and empathetic nature gave me a different perspective towards living, and if it weren't for her, I would've never imagined getting to this point. She is truly one of a kind, with a unique, cleansing energy. I will be grateful for the rest of my life that I had the pleasure of being her client. Thank you, Dr. Sam.

Dr Sam has been helping me navigate
through an extremely difficult crisis and she is like no
other. Nonjudgmental, highly intuitive and intelligent,
understanding, caring, thoughtful, and I always feel she
is in my corner. There is an immediate comfort level when
engaging with her, and it's so easy to reveal anything
and everything. She has genuine compassion, acknowledges
your thoughts and emotions, and doesn't behave like the
stereotypical therapist who either repeats back what the
patient says, or says “and how do you feel about that”.
She is totally immersed in your concerns, and offers a
wonderful attitude of optimism, and confidence - building
to overcome whatever the issue may be. My life has been
changed immensely...

DR. Sam is a brilliant therapist! She is empathetic, a good listener, makes suggestions appropriate to me and my situation,she is kind, extremely tactful, and has a wonderful sense of humor!
Reviewing a therapist can be very subjective. Took me a while to find the right one. Let me save everyone time and look no further.
For me, finding Dr. Sam was such a relief and she has provided such great feedback for me.
