Originally from Michigan, I now call Washington home. I am Dr. Samuel Gales, a Washington Licensed Mental Health Counselor, license #LH61079721.
My Approach
In my practice, I strive to understand your unique situation, what has led you to seek help, what you've already tried, and how you envision change in your life. I recognize that not every approach works for everyone, and together, we will discuss what seems beneficial, what isn’t, and how we can adapt our methods in therapy.
Clinical Background
My clinical experience encompasses integrated primary care and behavioral health, private practice, community and outpatient mental health, acute psychiatric care, psychological assessment, higher education, and clinical supervision. I previously held the position of Associate Professor and CMHC Lead Supervisor at NuHope Counseling Center.
