About Samantha Breneman (She/Her)

Samantha Breneman is a master’s level psychologist who has been practicing since 2017. She graduated from Madonna University with a Master of Science degree in Clinical Psychology.

Samantha mainly operates from the psychodynamic framework, but is competent in and comfortable with interventions from a variety of other therapeutic philosophies and believes in shaping her treatment approach to fit each of her clients individually. Her two main areas of focus are trauma/PTSD and couples issues.

In her spare time, Samantha enjoys camping in the Upper Peninsula, jet-skiing on Lake Michigan, attending comedy shows with friends, going on spontaneous mini getaways with her husband, and rewatching “the 1999 cinematic masterpiece, ‘The Mummy’, starring Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz”.
