This review is long overdue. As I reflect back on the last year, I'm so grateful to La'Tesha for the role she played in my personal growth + development. La'Tesha has been my personal counselor and therapist for my family for the last 3 years. She helped me come out of a slump (likely depression) and prioritize my life to focus on my health and mental well-being. As a result, I achieved some personal goals of losing over 100 lbs and relocating my family to a beautiful home in another state. La'Tesha also saw my family through some difficult times when my son's behavior was beyond stressful and my marriage was hanging on by a thread. We are far from in a perfect place and I have other milestones to achieve, but we made it through some tough times and got clarity around our expectations thanks to God's grace and La'Tesha's counseling.

I’m beyond words with the service that was provided to me. My perspective on life and the issues I’m facing is completely different. I wasn’t certain if I could overcome the difficulties, but now I’m on the road of recovery. If you're looking for a difference maker, you found her. I was extremely nervous about looking for help but I’m glad I sought counsel in her. Ten Stars and More!!!!! Excellent and Amazing!!!!!

Dr. Sampson was amazing for the year I was her patient. My schooling out of state made things taper off in the end, but she worked with me and my fluctuating schedule with kindness and compassion. She is a real person, and her vulnerability about being a real person bleeds into her practice and care for her patients.

La'tesha's advice and insight have been truly life-giving for me. I have come to her with a variety of issues over the past few years and she offers sound advice and action steps every time. I highly recommend her if you want to take steps towards experiencing a life filled with great joy.
