Clinical Social Work Practice – Sam Sperling, LCSW
Sam Sperling is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) offering individual therapy from offices in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with virtual sessions extending service coverage to residents of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. The practice operates out of two Philadelphia locations: 2201 Pennsylvania Avenue, Suite 101, in the Roxborough neighborhood, and 106 Gay Street, Suite 304, in Manayunk. Having two office sites gives clients in different parts of the city options for accessing in-person care.
Primary clinical modalities at the practice include EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Pain Reprocessing Therapy. These approaches are applied within a treatment focus centered on trauma recovery and chronic pain management. Sessions draw on mindfulness practices, yoga therapy, movement-based techniques, and breath exercises as complementary elements. Sperling’s stated clinical emphasis is on helping individuals make peace with their traumatic experiences and reduce the intensity of chronic pain symptoms over time.
The practice explicitly serves the LGBTQ+ community, describing itself as a space to feel heard, to be who you are, and to be accepted for it. This stated philosophy of unconditional acceptance informs the overall clinical orientation. The site characterizes the practice as a place where clients can bring their full selves without reservation. LGBTQ+ affirmative care is integrated into the practice’s therapeutic stance rather than offered as a separate specialty track.
In-person sessions are scheduled on Mondays and Tuesdays at the Philadelphia office locations. Virtual sessions are available to clients throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware, accommodating those who prefer telehealth or are unable to attend in person. The tri-state telehealth coverage broadens access for clients outside the immediate Philadelphia area. A free 15-minute consultation is offered to prospective clients who want to learn more about the practice before committing to a first session.
Insurance acceptance and self-pay rates are not specified in the accessible site content. No year of establishment is stated. Contact options include phone at (267) 754-2660 and secure email at samsperlingtherapy@hushmail.com.
