Family Mental Health Solutions

​Happiness is an Inside Job​
DADS​, MOMS, COUPLES, TEENS, & FAMILIES​
Sam Vadasz-Chates, LMSW, MBA

I help dads, moms, couples, and teens who are seeking greater satisfaction and joy in their lives and with their families. I am an imperfect but dedicated dad, husband, brother, and son. I dig (almost) all people, I see humor as strength, kids as wise, adults as kids with some extra years, a new beginning always available, resilience as trainable, and love as the only thing that lasts. I know first-hand that family can be crazy. I also know that family can be crazy amazing too. I am interested in using my 10+ years of experience in mental health and mindfulness to help you celebrate the good times, find meaning in the bad times, and not miss the moments in between.​​​​
