Meet The Team

Samantha Cordero

Admissions Coordinator

I am a behavioral health professional with experience supporting individuals navigating mental health and substance use challenges across multiple levels of care. I have worked as a Registered Behavioral Technician for one year, spent four years at Princeton House, and have been part of The Living Room (TLR) team for the past year. These experiences have allowed me to develop a strong foundation in client-centered care, crisis support, and therapeutic engagement across diverse populations.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with Honors and a 4.0 GPA, along with minors in Counseling and Anthropology, which have contributed to my holistic understanding of human behavior. I take my education very seriously and am currently pursuing my Master of Social Work (MSW), with an anticipated graduation in early 2027.  

Both my personal and professional experiences with mental health and addiction have deeply influenced my approach to care. I strive to provide empathetic, well-rounded support that considers the whole person. I understand that life can be challenging, and my goal is to be a steady source of support for individuals during difficult times, helping them feel seen, heard, and understood.

At The Living Room, I serve many roles including Social Work Intern and Group Facilitator,  Intake Coordinator, and Peer Support, stepping into whatever role is needed to best support clients and the team. My primary areas of focus include mental health and addiction.

The Living Room is especially meaningful to me because of its culture. It truly feels like a family—one where voices are valued, vulnerability is embraced as strength, and genuine connection is at the center of the work we do.

My path has not been linear, and I believe that is one of my greatest strengths. Life’s challenges—its detours, obstacles, and unexpected turns—have shaped my resilience and perspective. I bring that understanding into my work, encouraging others to see that even when the journey is difficult, growth and purpose can still emerge.
