Samantha Johns, MA, LPCC

Sam is a curious and direct therapist who helps clients better understand themselves and the world around them.

She believes we all develop ideas about who we are, what to expect from others, and how the world works. These ideas come from lived experiences and may have served us at the time, but sometimes they keep running the show long after they stop being useful. Sam believes good therapy creates enough safety and new experiences to question those old rules and build something more fitting for the life clients are living now. Her goal is to help clients do just that.

Sam transitioned to psychotherapy after a long tenure in the arts and brings an artist's paradigm of thinking and relating to her practice. She works with individuals navigating relationships, finances, LGBTQIA+ concerns, open and non-monogamous relationships, identity, spirituality, anxiety, and major life transitions.

Sam lives in Minneapolis and is a big fan of walking the lakes, yummy aesthetics, yoga, and radical art. She provides individual and couples psychotherapy under the supervision of Tricia Schulte, MA, MSW, LICSW (MN/WA). Sam is an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) and earned her master’s degree in Counseling and Psychological Services from Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota.
