How Samantha’s approaches translate to online therapy
Samantha uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy as part of her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose small actions that match their values, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connections affect current reactions, helping with issues like intimacy and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Samantha treats the choice of method as a collaborative decision based on what you want to achieve, your preferences and what feels most helpful in early sessions. She will discuss different options and adapt methods to fit your goals.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy weeks, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep regular momentum between sessions when life gets hectic. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care and reach clients who live further away.
