About Samantha
Samantha Taitt works with people dealing with stress and anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She also supports those facing relationship strain, eating or sleeping difficulties, addiction concerns, parenting pressures, grief, and work or career challenges. Samantha uses a practical, conversational style to help people find clearer next steps.
She takes a collaborative, client-centred approach and treats the person as the expert in their own life. Sessions focus on what is useful day to day, such as coping skills, clearer thinking, and small behaviour changes that add up over time.
Background and approach
Samantha draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to challenge unhelpful thought patterns and on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people identify their values and take committed action. She also uses attachment-based thinking when relationship patterns are important to the work. After six years of providing online counselling, she has developed practical ways to structure sessions and set manageable goals.
Conversations are straightforward, gentle, and paced to fit each person’s readiness to change. People can choose video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging according to what suits their lifestyle. Samantha works with clients across the United Kingdom and internationally, offering support in English.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them and then take actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to reduce worry and improve sleep or motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and can help when relationship issues or past attachment experiences affect day-to-day life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and preferences. That might mean trying one approach first and adjusting as the work progresses so sessions remain relevant and useful.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video suits fuller conversations and visual connection. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people work in shorter bursts or keep a written thread of progress. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, parenting and travel while keeping a steady course of support.
