About me and my therapy practice
Do you find yourself constantly trying to meet everyone else鈥檚 expectations, yet feeling guilty or 鈥渟elfish鈥 when you consider your own needs? When relationships feel heavy, stress builds, or your mind won鈥檛 switch off, it can leave you feeling drained and overwhelmed.
If you鈥檝e reached a point where you know something needs to shift but you鈥檙e unsure how to begin, I can help you understand what鈥檚 happening and support you in making the changes that lead to genuine relief and improvement.
I am a qualified and experienced Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist, supporting adults and young people with challenges such as anxiety, low self-worth, depression, neurodiversity, sexuality and relationship struggles. My work integrates a range of therapeutic models, including Transactional Analysis (TA), Person-Centred therapy, CBT, and Gestalt. I am also a qualified teacher which allows me to bring a valuable perspective when supporting young people, neurodiverse clients, and professionals dealing with stress or burnout.
Your goals and what you want to transform sit at the centre of our work together.
Practice description
In our sessions, we鈥檒l focus on what you want to shift in your life and gently explore the factors that may be holding you back. Together, we鈥檒l develop practical tools to help you feel more grounded鈥攚ithin yourself, in your relationships, and in your day-to-day experience. This may involve looking at the ways you relate to others, the tone of your inner dialogue, or the areas where you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure. At times, we may revisit earlier experiences鈥攏ot to dwell on the past, but to understand how old patterns or childhood beliefs might still be influencing your present. From there, we can reshape the stories you鈥檝e carried and reconnect with who you are today.
Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but you won鈥檛 be doing it alone. This is a space where you can speak openly, feel supported, and be met with warmth and understanding.
Life brings challenges to all of us, especially during periods of significant change鈥攚hether it鈥檚 bereavement, the end of a relationship, dissatisfaction at work, or repeating behaviours and thought patterns that no longer serve you.
Often, we don鈥檛 recognise how heavy things have become until the signs start showing: irritability, a sense of emptiness, changes in drinking or eating habits, difficulty sleeping, withdrawing from others, or losing enthusiasm for things that once felt meaningful. These patterns can make everyday life more difficult than it needs to be. With the right support, it鈥檚 possible to ease these struggles and begin to feel more like yourself again.
My first session
You can arrange a free, 15-minute introductory chat online or by phone. This short conversation gives you the chance to ask questions, share what has brought you to therapy, and get a sense of how I work, so you can feel confident about taking the next step.
You can contact me by email at samanthagoldby@hotmail.com
or by phone on 07788 665714. If I鈥檓 unavailable, please leave a message and I鈥檒l get back to you.
The first full session is slightly different from subsequent sessions. We鈥檒l complete a detailed assessment and go through the counselling agreement, creating a clear foundation for our work together. We will also establish your goals for therapy and check in on your progress regularly to make sure the sessions are supporting your needs effectively. Many clients notice positive changes starting within the first few weeks of therapy.
