Dr. Samantha Turetsky is a licensed clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience. She specializes in treating eating disorders, perfectionism, and overcontrol. She loves helping high achievers who have it all together on paper but feel unfulfilled and disconnected move from rigidity to flexibility, get out of "grind" culture, and find more joy and play in their lives. She's also passionate about helping women challenge societal norms and expectations to find out what they really want, not what they think they should want.

Sami left group practice to start her own private practice in 2024 and has recently relocated from Florida to Seattle. Her greatest asset as a therapist is that she is authentically herself in sessions, with therapeutic doses of sass, sarcasm, humor, cursing, and all. She's part of PSYPACT and can practice virtually in 43 states and is currently accepting new clients. In her spare time, you can find her in nature, supporting the local art and theatre scene, with her partner, or with her rescue dog Lala.
