Testimonials
Therapy with Samantha was incredibly beneficial for me. She created a safe and supportive environment where I could openly explore my thoughts and emotions. When I first began therapy, I was overwhelmed by anxiety, which was affecting both my personal and professional life.
Through our discussions, I developed effective coping strategies, and learned how to better manage my stress and anxiety. One of the things I said at the start was that I would never fly again because of my anxiety, but with Samantha’s guidance, l was able to overcome that fear.
Since then, I’ve travelled abroad and am planning a trip to Japan later this year. Samantha was so supportive throughout my therapy journey, and I know I can always turn to her for help if I ever need it again
Going to see Samantha was the best thing I’ve ever done. When I started I was dark place where I didn’t want to leave my house and I thought I could fight my way out of on my own.
I was recommended going to see a therapist multiple times but l’ve never been one to speak about my feelings so l didn’t. In the end I decided to start with Samantha and I didn’t stop talking, it felt like a weight lifted off my shoulders.
Mentally I’m now in the best place l’ve ever been and I would recommend Samantha to anyone as she helped me out of that dark place and I’ll always be thankful for that
Frequently asked questions
What can I expect in my first therapy session?
In the first session, we will discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals, and any concerns you may have. It’s an opportunity to explore whether we are the right fit to work together and for you to ask any questions about the process
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies for each person and depends on your individual needs and goals. Some clients find short-term therapy beneficial, while others choose longer-term support. We can review progress as we go along
Is therapy confidential?
Yes, confidentiality is a key part of therapy. However, there are some legal and ethical exceptions, such as if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others.
This will be discussed in more detail during your first session.
What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule?
I have a 48-hour cancellation policy.
If you cancel with less than 48 hours’ notice, the full session fee will still be charged.
If you provide more than 48 hours’ notice, we can reschedule or issue a credit towards a future session.
How do I pay for my sessions?
Payment for the first session is due on the day of booking. After that, payment is required at least 72 hours before each session. Payments can be made via bank transfer or cash.
