About me
A Space for Healing, Understanding and Change
Hello, I'm Samantha, a qualified Counsellor and Transpersonal Psychotherapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's challenges, emotional difficulties and periods of personal transformation.
I believe that therapy is about more than simply managing symptoms. It's an opportunity to understand ourselves on a deeper level, explore the patterns that may be holding us back, and begin to create meaningful and lasting change.
Perhaps you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed or emotionally exhausted. You may be struggling with relationships, experiencing low self-esteem, navigating grief or loss, or finding yourself repeating patterns that no longer serve you. Sometimes, we simply reach a point in life where we know something needs to change, even if we're not quite sure what that looks like.
Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to work through it alone.
How I Work
My approach is warm, compassionate and intuitive, offering a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at your own pace.
As a Transpersonal Psychotherapist, I work holistically, recognising the connection between our emotional, psychological and physical wellbeing. Alongside exploring present-day challenges, we may look at how earlier experiences, relationships and deeply held beliefs have shaped the way you see yourself and navigate the world.
I believe that developing greater self-awareness can be profoundly empowering. When we begin to understand why we feel, think and respond in certain ways, we create opportunities to make different choices, establish healthier boundaries and develop a stronger sense of self.
My work is tailored to you as an individual, drawing upon different therapeutic approaches depending on your needs.
Areas I Can Help With
I support clients experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including:
Anxiety, stress and depression
Trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Relationship difficulties and separation
Low self-esteem, self-worth and confidence
Codependency and unhealthy relationship patterns
Bereavement, grief and loss
Addictions and compulsive behaviours
Emotional overwhelm and life transitions
Childhood experiences and unresolved emotional difficulties
Personal growth, self-discovery and finding direction
Trauma Therapy – EMDR and EFT
I have a particular interest in helping people work through unresolved trauma and the lasting emotional impact of difficult experiences.
Alongside talking therapy, I offer Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), which can be incorporated into our work where appropriate.
Trauma doesn't always arise from one significant event. Sometimes it develops through repeated experiences, difficult relationships or situations where our emotional needs were not met.
These experiences can influence how we feel about ourselves, how we relate to others and how safe we feel in the world.
Through our work together, we can begin to explore and process these experiences, helping you move towards greater emotional freedom, resilience and a sense of inner stability.
Taking the First Step
I offer both short-term counselling and longer-term psychotherapy, depending on what you're looking for.
I understand that reaching out for support can feel daunting, particularly if you've never experienced therapy before. My intention is to create a space where you feel comfortable, heard and supported, without pressure or judgement.
Whether you're facing a particular challenge or simply feel ready to understand yourself more deeply, I would be happy to explore how we might work together.
If you'd like to arrange an appointment or have any questions, please feel free to get in touch.
You can contact me on 07411 620302 or send me a message through Counselling Directory.
I look forward to hearing from you.
