Samantha Evans is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Minnesota, holding state licensure (MN LPCC cc02579), who brings a background in rehabilitation counseling and hands-on work in community mental health settings.
She earned a Bachelor of Science from Bemidji State University in Bemidji, MN, graduating in 2012, and later completed graduate studies in Rehabilitation Counseling at St. Cloud State University, finishing in 2016. Early in her career she managed group homes and adult foster care facilities serving people with behavioral and developmental disabilities, and she later worked as a school-based CTSS practitioner.
After transitioning to roles as an ARMHS worker and then a Mental Health Professional/Clinical Trainee in 2018, she provided individual psychotherapy to children, teenagers, and a small number of young adults in a variety of settings through 2021. Her clinical experience includes school-based, office-based, and online therapy, and she also facilitated individual and group therapy for teenagers at the local juvenile detention center for eight months.
Samantha holds national certification in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and has experience with a crisis response team, conducting assessments and offering stabilization to individuals in acute need. The bulk of her work has focused on adolescents and young adults dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and transitional life concerns.
Currently she works as an adult mental health case manager in a Monday-Friday “9-5” role, and she is enthusiastic about returning to online therapy after a brief hiatus. She is interested in working with clients on BetterHelp to expand her experience with adult clients and continue exploring her therapeutic direction.
Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person care for most individuals.
A major benefit is the flexibility it offers - clients can choose the format that fits their routine and comfort level, whether that is video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability often makes it easier to keep therapy consistent amid busy schedules.
All participating clinicians are licensed professionals, and clients often have the option to switch therapists if they are seeking a different therapeutic fit. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible and practical way to engage in mental health work without sacrificing the quality of care.
