About Samantha
Samantha Delisio is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship strains, grief, depression, parenting concerns, and family of origin issues. Samantha also focuses on eating and intimacy-related concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Samantha uses an attachment-informed lens to understand how early relationships shape current patterns. She looks at how roles, expectations, and closeness from childhood influence choices and reactions today. The goal in sessions is to identify those patterns and try different ways of relating that feel more manageable.
Her work with children and caregivers includes Child-Parent Psychotherapy, a relationship-focused model intended for young children and their caregivers. In those cases she spends time engaging with both the child and the caregiver to support stronger emotional bonds and clearer communication.
With adult clients she blends client-centered conversation with practical skills from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches. Sessions can include talking through difficult memories, practicing new interaction strategies, and building emotion regulation skills. She also draws on existential ideas to help people clarify values and choices.
Samantha trained at Chatham University with a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology and earned a graduate certificate in Infant Mental Health. She also holds dual bachelor degrees from The Pennsylvania State University. She asks new clients to complete a brief questionnaire to match on goals and plan a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect feelings and behavior. Online sessions using this approach usually explore patterns from childhood and current relationship dynamics to help people notice and try different ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and the clients experience. It gives space for people to tell their story and identify what matters most, which can help with self-esteem and decision making. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often includes short exercises between sessions to test new ways of thinking and acting.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client together decide which methods fit the clients goals, life demands, and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying an approach for a few sessions and then adjusting based on what helps.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, or caregiving by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They can also reduce the need to arrange childcare or take long breaks at work. Ask about session length and technical needs when you schedule to find a workable plan.
