Samantha Kendall, LGMFT
Hello! I’m a Licensed Graduate Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in Maryland available to work with individuals, couples, and families. You may want support to prioritize your own mental health, cultivate healthier relationships through life’s transitions, or seek to reconnect with your partner after having children. My goal for couples and family therapy is to increase intimacy, connection, and support by breaking down barriers to communication and re-establishing trust and respect. I want to join you as you work through mental health challenges and build deeper connections and understanding with your loved ones and within yourself.
