Hello, I'm Sam. Perhaps you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to change. You might be struggling with relationships, low self-worth, experiences from your past, or simply feeling lost or that something isn’t quite right. I’m a Humanistic and Integrative counsellor and psychotherapist. I’m relational, down-to-earth and human in my approach, and believe the relationship we build together is at the centre of therapy. We can explore what’s happening now, while also understanding experiences and patterns from the past that may still affect you today.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, especially when you are carrying difficult experiences on your own. I have a particular specialism in supporting adults and young people aged 11 and over experiencing anxiety, PTSD and trauma. Perhaps you are wanting to understand why you struggle with self-criticism, low self-worth or feel undeserving of happiness. You may not be able to put your finger on quite what it is, but you are feeling overwhelmed or stuck in some way. I believe you are the expert on your own life and my role is to support you to make sense of your thoughts, feelings and experiences in a safe, compassionate space.

Taking the first step into therapy can feel daunting, especially if you’re used to coping on your own. You might be functioning on the outside, but inside you feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck in patterns that are getting you down. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone and you don’t have to carry it by yourself. Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves or others. You may have an idea of what feels wrong, but feel unsure how to move forward, or whether change is possible.

Compassionate Counselling
Psychotherapist, MUKCP
We all get periods when we feel low, anxious, stressed, stuck or confused and need extra support. Friends and family are great at these times. However, sometimes the additional help of someone with psychological training and experience is invaluable in order to help you to look at things from a different perspective. I have 17 years experience counselling adults in private practice & NHS settings. My approach is integrative. This means that I am trained and experienced in using a range of psychotherapy theories and methods. So, just as you are unique, my approach will be uniquely tailored to suit your individual needs.

FAQ - About Therapy for Seniors
Is one ever too old for mental health therapy?
Individuals of all ages can benefit from mental health therapy. Indeed, older adults in particular may benefit from the social and psychological support a therapist can provide; the topics that older adults address in therapy may simply differ from those of younger clients. Seniors should seek out a therapist who has experience working with older individuals and who is well-versed in addressing common concerns among elderly individuals, such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and physical mobility challenges.

How is counselling for elderly different from counselling for other age groups?
In general, counselling offers an opportunity for clients to process difficult life events and develop coping skills they can use outside of the therapy session. Therapists who specialise in working with elderly clients generally have the same framework but may place a special emphasis on specific topics, such as caregiver relationships and reducing loneliness. They may be specially equipped to deal with certain physical conditions or facilitate discussion surrounding end-of-life topics. Counselling for the elderly may also place a greater emphasis on social work-type topics to ensure that geriatric clients have access to necessary resources, such as food, a safe home environment, and healthcare.

How can therapy improve the quality of life of aging individuals?
Therapy for aging adults can greatly improve quality of life by providing an opportunity for them to process difficult emotions related to end-of-life, navigate relational or caregiver challenges, and develop coping skills for common mental health conditions, like anxiety or depression. Subsequent reductions in negative emotions and mental health disorder symptoms can make day-to-day living much more manageable for aging adults and those that care for them. The ongoing relationship with a trusted therapist can also help seniors combat loneliness and provide a sense of structure for their routine.

What are the qualities to look for in therapists who see seniors?
Seniors counsellors, like mental health counselors in general, should be kind, empathetic, skilled at listening, and knowledgeable about their particular area of expertise. Counsellors specialising in working with the senior population should be very familiar with the aging process in general and the common conditions that the elderly can face, such as dementia, depression, loneliness, and/or physical illness. Many senior counsellors are also well-equipped to help caregivers and families navigate the aging process of their loved ones, and they may draw on Interpersonal Therapy to help facilitate improved interactions between seniors and those that care for them.
