"For me, it is an honor to help those experiencing challenges. I am passionate about what I do."
At Samsara we seek to embrace and develop an organizational culture that values trauma informed practice and respect for all.
We recognize the health disparities of people of color, military veterans, and LGBTQ+ individuals. We believe that the experiences of these communities must be valued in the work we do. We trust that by operating under these principles, values and frameworks, we are well positioned to do just that.

PABLO ORTEGA
Pablo's approach to care is rooted in the belief that “a patient is more than their diagnosis—they're a mosaic of every positive experience, source of adversity, trauma, and human connection they've ever had.”
He practices from a Rogerian perspective, emphasizing unconditional positive regard and “meeting people where they’re at, at any given moment,” while working to de-stigmatize mental healthcare and make it accessible to all, regardless of labels.
For Pablo, this work is “a way of giving back to the community that helped me grow and become who I am today.”
Fun Facts: Musician, horror movie enthusiast, tattoo lover, and fan of heavy music.
