Background and approach

This experience informs how she adapts sessions for different needs. Her approach is integrative. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and on emotion-focused work to address painful feelings.

She also uses attachment ideas to look at how relationships shape the present day and mindfulness to build coping skills. Samantha is comfortable using creative exercises when words alone do not feel enough. These methods can help people open up more gently and make progress without pressure.

She tailors the mix of approaches to what each person finds most useful. Sessions are offered in English and can take place online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Samantha accepts international clients and aims to respond to messages within 24 hours Monday to Friday.

She works to create a clear, steady pathway through therapy that suits everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online work

Samantha commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, and supports them to act on values that matter. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying and changing thinking or behaviour patterns that keep problems going, which can help with anxiety, panic and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Samantha will discuss your situation and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try. She adapts techniques to feel collaborative and practical so you can test what helps most for you.

Online therapy with Samantha can take place by video call, phone session, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a more traditional session feel. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
