Meet Samantha Wright
At Rising Calm Center Jacksonville, Samantha has a heart for helping individuals who feel disconnected from God, themselves, or others, and who deeply want healing & growth but may not know where to begin. Some may feel trapped by negative thought patterns, emotional triggers, people-pleasing, fear of rejection, low self-worth, or difficulty regulating their nervous system. Others may be navigating major life transitions, spiritual wounds, grief, relationship struggles, or questions surrounding identity, faith, & purpose.
Samantha also specializes in helping people navigate their faith & sexuality safely so they can uncover their beliefs about who they are, why they are here, & what their purpose in this life is.
Her passion is shaped by her own healing journey, which enables her to meet clients with deep compassion and understanding. She creates a safe, judgment-free space where individuals can slow down and process their experiences, gain clarity, and move towards wholeness.
Samantha holds a Master's degree in Pastoral Counseling from Liberty University, is a certified mental health coach, and offers healing prayer to support lasting growth, freedom, and a stronger sense of identity.
