More about Samantha

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

Hi, I am a licenced and BACP registered cognitive behaviour therapist, counsellor and mental health nurse in Scotland, UK. I have over 20 years experience working in mental health and experienced in helping clients with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, confidence, assertiveness and boundaries, relationship and attachment problems, stress and panic, emotion regulation problems, career challenges, bullying, burnout, trauma and abuse, and complex PTSD.

I offer a safe and supportive space, where thoughts and feelings can be expressed in confidence, without judgement. I use the active approach of CBT counselling and related therapies where appropriate, such as Mindfulness Based CBT, Trauma focused therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Compassion Focused Therapy, to help clients reach their goals, reconnect with their sense of self and move forward in life with new meaning and purpose.

Previous clients have fed back on how they have benefited from my warm, welcoming and professional approach, whilst also quickly getting to the root of issues and enabling positive progress and change. It is always a privilege to be alongside my clients on their journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
