Hello

I’m Dr. Samantha Miller Scherr, and I help adults make sense of their experiences in a meaningful way. People come to me who are inquisitive and trying their best, yet still feel detached and longing for a better understanding of their lives. Oftentimes they’ve been in the driver’s seat going 100 miles an hour for years and can’t quite figure out how to slow down. Together, we work to slow fast-paced life, be present with ourselves and others, and ultimately, see the once-blurry scenes in a clearer way. Curious people come to me to gain perspective and see the full picture of life’s scenic travels. Just as each road trip is unique, so too is our tailor-made therapy. If you’re open-minded, motivated, and filled with curiosity, let’s see if we’re a good match!​
I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist in the State of California (PSY30998).
Let's talk to see how I can help you.

Professional Journey

I have been working in the mental health field since 2010, beginning as a Psychology Extern at Aurora Las Encinas Hospital, and continuing as a Behavioral Health Paraprofessional for the Department of Psychology at the University of Arizona. In the last several years, I have worked with adolescents and adults at a correctional facility, inpatient intensive critical care unit, outpatient community mental health clinics, and the Arizona State Hospital. I completed my postdoctoral experience with training in psychoanalytic theory and psychodynamic therapy.
