Welcome. My name is Samantha, but most people call me Sami. I'm a social worker, certified clinical trauma professional and somatic therapist specialising in counselling for adults who have experienced trauma, abuse or grief. I've dedicated the last few years to working with people with complex trauma, walking alongside them in their journey to return to wholeness. If you would like to work with me, we take a collaborative approach; a blend of talking therapy, mindful awareness and somatic inquiry to reduce any trauma symptoms you might be experiencing that are holding you back from living a full, joyful life.
I offer a holistic approach to counselling, which blends aspects of traditional talking therapy/counselling with mindful and bodily awareness, nervous system education and self-regulation tools which you can practice at home straight away. I'll walk alongside you as you deepen your knowledge of yourself and learn new coping skills and self-compassion.
Are you a survivor of childhood sexual abuse? Perhaps you’ve never disclosed the abuse to anyone, because you’ve felt ashamed. Perhaps you’re having flashbacks, nightmares, intrusive thoughts. Perhaps you struggle to feel safe or to trust others and it's impacting your relationship/s. We can work together to reduce the impacts of trauma and rediscover joy.
