Relationships are a particular area of interest for Dr. Sampson. She sees working with couples as presenting a unique opportunity to work “in vivo” with interpersonal dynamics in a way that can bring positive changes to the relationship. She takes a supportive and engaged approach to couples therapy, helping people to see both problematic and effective ways of communicating with their partner as they occur. Dr. Sampson has experience working with couples dealing with family of origin issues, communication difficulties, extra-marital affairs, relational aggression, co-parenting after a separation or divorce as well as issues in pre-marital couples and same-sex partnerships.
