About Samuel
Samuel Kurkiewicz is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida. He draws on two decades of experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the strain of big life changes. Samuel keeps sessions straightforward and practical so people can make steady progress toward clearer goals.
He uses approaches like acceptance and commitment principles, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral tools to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to the person, with clear steps for coping and decision making. Samuel also brings elements from dialectical skills work and emotionally-focused methods when emotion regulation or stronger relational patterns are part of the picture. People often come for help with relationships, career direction, motivation, parenting stress, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Samuel pays attention to communication habits, control issues, guilt and shame, and problems with impulsivity or jealousy. He aims to help people strengthen self-love, clarify life purpose, and handle money or midlife concerns more calmly. Samuel describes therapy as a collaborative process.
He listens first, helps set goals, and then practices exercises and skills together. Progress is measured in small, practical changes that fit daily life. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
He works within a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and holds a Florida LMHC credential.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and confusion about life direction. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on active listening and empathy so people feel understood and can find their own solutions; it supports self-esteem, motivation, and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful habits, which helps with anxiety, depression, and coping strategies.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. Sessions are collaborative so adjustments can be made as progress unfolds and priorities shift.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, live chat fits quick back-and-forth problem solving, and text messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reminders. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into work, parenting, or travel schedules.
