Sam is utterly brilliant! I have had many therapists over the years but no one has quite got the results out of me like Sam has and I cannot thank her enough. Highly recommend!

Working with Samantha as my therapist for the last few months have been so helpful for me in dealing with anxiety and overwhelming emotions, she seems to always know the right questions to ask, and have a really thought through balance between professionalism and casual talk.
She never minds me going of on my own trains of thought, and brilliantly picks up on small details in what i'm trying to say in our sessions.
I would highly recommend Samantha!

Samantha was professional and kind. I enjoyed our session. She was also great at taking notes to reflect on the session.
