Hello, I’m Samantha Rayne, a qualified Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) offering a compassionate, trauma-informed approach to emotional wellbeing and personal growth. My practice, CBT with Samantha Rayne – Think. Do. Grow., is grounded in evidence-based CBT while integrating mindfulness and holistic techniques to support the mind–body connection.
I work with adults and young people experiencing challenges such as anxiety, low mood, self-esteem issues, relationship difficulties, and past trauma. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves — together, we make sense of patterns that keep them trapped and build the tools for lasting change.
I also draw on my experience working within CAMHS, alternative education, and trauma-informed community settings, supporting both adults and young people to rebuild trust, resilience, and emotional regulation.
