About
Samuel "Sam" Hackett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and mental performance coach who supports athletes, high-performers, and individuals who want greater control over their thoughts, emotions, and daily routines.
His work brings together counseling and practical mental performance strategies to help clients build confidence, manage anxiety, and create tools they can use in real-life moments - whether that is during competition, in the workplace, or within important relationships. Sam often focuses on performance anxiety and confidence, emotional regulation and stress management, and building consistent routines and habits, with added support for athletes and high-achievers navigating pressure.
Sessions are collaborative and action-oriented, with an emphasis on practical steps rather than only talking things through. Many clients opt for morning appointments so they can apply what they learn throughout the day, using the session to start with clarity, intention, and a workable plan. Sam tends to be a strong match for people who value structure, growth, and showing up at their best.

Putting Proven Approaches to Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy is built around the idea that people do best when they feel heard and respected in the process. Samuel "Sam" Hackett uses this approach to create an encouraging, nonjudgmental space where clients can sort through anxiety, stress, and life pressures while clarifying what matters most and what changes feel realistic.The Gottman Method is a structured, research-informed approach often used to strengthen relationships. It focuses on communication patterns, everyday connection, and practical skills for navigating conflict, which can be especially helpful when stress, performance pressure, or changing routines begin to affect a partnership or family life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sam collaborates with clients to understand goals, preferences, and what is already working, then adapts sessions to support progress in a way that feels practical and usable in daily life.
Online therapy makes it easier to keep momentum. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions, and they can also use live chat or text-based messaging for added flexibility.
