About Samuel
Samuel Heastie is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in Florida with eight years of experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem, and depression. He also focuses on related issues such as attachment, communication problems, codependency, and grief.
He uses a collaborative, client-centered way of working. Sessions aim to identify what gets in the way, what the client wants to change, and what progress looks like day to day. He emphasizes practical tools to use right away alongside attention to deeper patterns that keep someone stuck.
Samuel draws on his background in education to explain concepts clearly and to track progress with measurable steps. He often helps people set short-term goals like steadier mood, better sleep, or improved communication skills while also attending to longer-term relationship and well-being concerns.
He supports people dealing with family transitions, blended family stress, divorce and separation, and fatherhood issues, as well as challenges tied to addiction, infidelity, guilt, and shame. Samuel also has experience addressing end-of-life and hospice related counseling needs.
Sessions are practical and paced to the individual. He describes therapy as intentional and focused without rushing, and he works alongside clients to build skills and clarify next steps. Samuel accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Samuel describes his work as evidence-based and practical. He often uses methods that teach skills for managing strong feelings and improving communication. One approach focuses on skill teaching for anxiety and stress - learning short-term strategies to steady mood, reduce reactivity, and manage panic or overwhelm. Another approach addresses patterns in relationships and attachment - looking at how past interactions shape current reactions and working on clearer communication and boundaries.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. He works collaboratively with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That means you and he decide together which techniques to use and when to shift strategies.
