About Samantha
Samantha Johnson is a counsellor who focuses on anxiety and stress. She creates a calm space where people can talk about overwhelm, low mood and the pressures of everyday life. Samantha aims to help clients notice unhelpful thinking patterns and build small, practical steps that make day-to-day life feel easier.
She trained in Person-Centred therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and uses both approaches to match the needs of each person.
Background and approach
That means time to talk through feelings alongside structured tools to manage thoughts and behaviours. Sessions move at a pace set by the client and focus on what matters most right now. Samantha has three years of clinical experience since first practising in 2020.
Before that she spent over eight years working in educational settings, which gave her hands-on experience supporting young people with additional needs and working alongside parents. She is a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, NCPS. Her areas of interest include parenting pressures, self-esteem, panic and panic attacks, life changes and coping with grief or separation.
She also supports people dealing with body image, attachment worries, caregiver stress and difficulties with money or life purpose. Sessions are held in English and are offered online in several formats to suit different needs. Samantha aims to work in a straightforward, respectful way.
People can expect practical strategies, gentle listening and collaborative planning to help manage symptoms and make clearer decisions about the next steps.
Practical therapy approaches and online access
Person-Centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person as they are. It helps people feel heard and builds trust so they can explore feelings at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals, try techniques together and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. Samantha aims to combine listening with practical tools and will involve the client in deciding the best way forward.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a quicker check-in. Live chat or messaging can suit people who prefer shorter, written exchanges or need flexibility around work and family time. These options make therapy easier to fit around daily life and different routines.
