About me
Hello, I’m Samantha, Co founder of SR2 THERAPEUTIC SOLUTIONS– a qualified Person-Centred and Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) working with both children and adults. I’ve been practising since 2020 and bring over eight years of experience supporting individuals in educational settings, including families and those with additional needs and diversities.
I am a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and fully committed to providing safe, ethical, and effective therapeutic support.
I offer a warm, confidential space where you can feel heard and supported. Whether you're facing anxiety, low mood, stress, overwhelm, or just need a space to process life's challenges, I tailor our work together to your individual needs.
With adults, I work with a wide range of concerns—from emotional overwhelm, low self-esteem, and grief, to trauma, relationship issues, and personal development. My approach integrates Person-Centred values with the structure and tools of CBT, helping you explore your thoughts and feelings while also developing practical strategies for change.
I have specialist experience supporting children and young people, including those with additional and complex needs, and I’ve worked closely with their parents and wider families. My previous role as a School Mental Health Lead gave me valuable insight into the unique emotional needs of children and the wider impact on family systems.
I offer a free initial telephone or video consultation so you can ask any questions and decide whether therapy with me feels right.
Sessions available:
Face-to-face in a private, comfortable therapy space
Online or telephone for flexibility and convenience
Walk and talk therapy in calming outdoor spaces (Roker, Seaburn, and local parks)
Appointments are available seven days a week, from 8am to 8pm, offering flexibility to fit around your schedule.
Please feel free to get in touch to arrange your free consultation—I'm here to support you, whatever stage you're at.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
