ABOUT ME...

Hi, I’m Samantha and I help individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion and understanding. Do you find yourself lacking the motivation and enthusiasm you once had for life? You don't have to navigate these challenges alone. I can help you rediscover your inner spark and regain confidence in yourself.

WHY WORK WITH ME?

In addition to my training and qualifications, I have experience of what it means to be human living in a messy world. I learned how to navigate life experiences that had a profound impact on me and shaped the landscape of my current and future life. I have been the person who has sat in the chair opposite the counsellor, and I understand the courage it takes to reach out for help. I will bring compassion and empathy to our sessions together.

Throughout my counselling career, I've had the privilege of working in diverse settings, including agency environments and local schools. In these roles, I've gained invaluable experience providing both time-limited and longer-term counselling services, adapting my approach to meet the unique goals and needs of each client. Prior to my counselling work, I worked in financial services and understand the demands and pressures of a fast-paced career.
