Counselling & Psychotherapy
A safe, supportive space for growth and change
About me…
Hello, I’m Sam, a registered psychotherapist working in South London and online. I believe therapy is built on a safe, supportive relationship where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgement. “It’s the relationship that heals,” (Irvin D. Yalom) and I hold this at the heart of my work.
I have a wide range of clinical experience working with clients from all walks of life, and have worked in depth with young adults and students, neurodivergent adults, stress and burnout, and people in creative industries.
Before becoming a psychotherapist I worked for over a decade in the demanding events and hospitality industry, which gave me first-hand experience of the pressures of high-stress environments and the impact they can have on wellbeing. This insight helps me relate to clients who feel under pressure, overwhelmed or burned out.
“Sam listens and encourages new ways of thinking. There is always an openness and friendliness to our conversations.”

What to expect
I am an integrative therapist, mainly following a psychodynamic and person-centred approach. In short, this means I believe our previous experiences and relationships shape who we are today, and that everyone has the potential for personal growth.
Together, we’ll develop an approach that feels supportive and meaningful for you.

"I really valued my sessions with Sam. He challenged me at times to reflect on my own attitudes, and encouraged me to be gentler on myself, always leaving space for me to come to my own conclusions which has helped me understand myself and my ways of thinking better in the long term.”
