About Samiyra
Samiyra Shabazz-Dixon is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Kentucky. She brings six years of professional experience to sessions and focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. She encourages people to take the first step toward help and acknowledges that starting therapy can feel hard.

Samiyra also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment worries, caregiver stress, and isolation. She talks through practical ways to handle impulsivity, guilt and shame, and decisions around divorce and separation. Money and financial issues are part of the broader life concerns she helps people sort through.
Her work emphasizes building small, manageable changes rather than large immediate shifts. She helps clients set realistic goals and tries techniques aimed at improving day-to-day functioning. Over time clients can practice new habits that support mood and relationships.

Approaches that guide online work and practical steps
Samiyra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real-world change. One common approach she uses helps people notice unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practice different ways of responding to stress and mood changes. This can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and managing day-to-day emotions.Another approach centers on relationships and attachment. It helps people identify how past experiences shape current connections and teaches clearer communication and boundary setting for healthier relationships and less isolation.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques match their goals and preferences. Over a few sessions she will suggest options and adjust methods based on what is most useful in practice.
