Sam has helped me massively within these past couple of weeks. Just having someone to talk to who understands and knows exactly what to say and to explain why you're feeling a certain way is so encouraging. I'd definitely recommend Sam.

More about Sam
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am a UK-licensed therapist with over seven years’ professional experience, alongside 19 years working as a frontline medic in central London. This background has shaped a calm, grounded approach and a strong ability to work safely with complex and distressing experiences.
I specialise in LGBTQ+ related issues, relationship difficulties, attachment-based challenges, and trauma, including CPTSD, PTSD, and experiences of abuse. My work is attachment and trauma-informed, with a strong focus on emotional safety, trust, and collaboration.
I offer a respectful, compassionate place where you can explore what’s bringing you to therapy at your own pace. Our work will be tailored to your individual needs, supporting meaningful change while helping you feel more grounded and connected.
Taking the first step can feel daunting — you don’t have to do it alone. My aim is to make starting therapy feel as safe, supported, and manageable as possible.

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.

Sam is great, I’ve tried therapy a few times and it’s never lasted. But I look forward to our sessions.
Really helpful and supportive. Would recommend to anyone.
I have been to councilling before and never felt as understood as I do when I speak with Sam, I am so greatful for Sam.
Sam is the best therapist!
Excellent
Sam instantly puts you at ease. Making it very easy to open up in a very open space. Full of great advice and has the life experience to back it up.
I've only had a few sessions with Sam so far, but she has been great. Easy to talk to, but also does a good job of pushing me to take action.
Sam is an amazing therapist that really listens, understands and summarizes what I tell her. She gives great advise in different ways, she gives oral advice but also sends forms I can fill in that might help me or advices me to read a book that will help me. She is not too shy to tell me the truth. It's good!
I was really stressed about the idea of doing therapy and not knowing who I was going to get. But Sam has been beyond amazing, already in only 3 sessions. I feel very lucky that the app connected me with her as my therapist. I strongly recommend her! She is absolutely brilliant!!!
