Samuel C. Sweet, PhD
Clinical Child Psychologist
Welcome!
I'm Dr. Sam Sweet. I work with children, teens, and their families.
I want every young person I work with to feel understood — not fixed. My approach respects neurodivergent identities and works with how a child's brain works, not against it.
-
One-on-one therapy for children and adolescents, in partnership with their caregivers
-
Support and coaching for parents
-
Help navigating school systems, IEPs, and accommodations
-
Neurodiversity-affirming care for ADHD, autism, anxiety, and emotional regulation
-
Psychological assessment for autism, ADHD, and related concerns
How I Work:
Every child does better when they feel safe, respected, and believed. Together, we make sense of their experiences, build practical tools, and focus on strengths — not deficits.
I don't blame or judge families. We work as a team to find strategies that fit your family, are realistic, and actually work.
What matters to me:
-
Respecting each child's identity
-
Reducing stigma around neurodivergence
-
Supporting parents without shame
-
Making therapy practical, not abstract
-
Building skills that last
What to Expect:
My office is a calm, low-sensory space. You'll find fidget tools, soft seating, wobble cushions, and an air purifier for cleaner air.
A note on access: My office is up a flight and a half of stairs, with no elevator. If stairs are a barrier for you or your child, please reach out — I'm happy to talk through options.
