Samaiyah Fullylove , LPC

Samaiyah Fullylove is a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of clinical experience in Arizona. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about identity, relationships, and personal setbacks. Her work often includes support for LGBT concerns and multicultural issues.

Samaiyah focuses on clear, practical steps clients can use between sessions. She helps people name patterns, try new ways of communicating, and practice coping skills for stress or strong emotions. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented while staying attuned to each person’s background.

Many clients seek help with feelings of guilt, shame, or fears of abandonment. Samaiyah also supports people who are navigating adoption and foster care histories, attachment concerns, or the consequences of past trauma. She listens for how early relationships shape current behavior and helps clients consider alternative responses.

Her work draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral methods and trauma-focused techniques to address thoughts, behaviors, and memories that keep someone stuck. Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior work are used to strengthen emotional regulation and distress tolerance.

Samaiyah aims to partner with each person to set clear goals and try hands-on strategies. She helps people track change and adjust plans when something isn’t working. The pace is set by the client and shaped by what they want to achieve.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experiences. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping clients find their own solutions, which is useful when working through identity and relationship concerns.

Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses straightforward exercises to test beliefs and change unhelpful patterns, making it helpful for anxiety, shame, and communication problems.

Dialectical behavior therapy adds practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Skills training for distress tolerance and emotion regulation can reduce crisis moments and improve daily coping.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences and will adapt the plan as progress is tracked.

Online therapy can make regular sessions easier to keep. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can support brief check-ins or skill practice between sessions. These options add flexibility so therapy can fit into work, school, or caregiving schedules.
