We all experience difficult times and counselling can help to explore your inner thoughts, feelings and gain some clarity and help emotionally.

I consider myself kind, caring, empathetic and down to earth. I aim to offer a non-judgemental, confidential space for you to share your thoughts, feelings, experiences and relationships with others. This can be challenging to explore thoughts that stem from your beliefs and come to understand yourself more clearly.

 I am a psychotherapist, supervisor and I tutor. I love having a variety in what I can offer. I work with clients, trainee counsellors and qualified counsellors to offer a range of services . 

I can offer online or by telephone.

Face to face sessions can be arranged up to 4pm. 

I will send some paperwork before the session, then the first session will consist of an initial assessment.
At the first session I will gather some important information and explore the reason that bought you to counselling.
I think it is important to establish some goals for what you would like to get out of these sessions. This is then reviewed at a later date and is always flexible.  

The supervisory relationship is a really important one and I aim to always work with honesty and transparency. I ask the same from therapists to enhance the relationship and the therapeutic work. I offer a safe space to process and support the therapeutic work. 

My model is integrative and that is the theoretic approach supervision I work from which includes Person centred, Transactional analysis Cognitive behavioural therapy and  Psychodynamic. I use Hawkins and Shohet- seven eyed model to explore what is going on for everyone involved in the process. 

I personally love the supervision I have and love working with all my supervisees. I am also a Tutor at Langley Therapy and Training Which has given me  a wide variety of working with all different therapist, both experienced and in training.  

I contract a minimum of 1 hour per month at the cost of £50.Please contact me for information on group supervision. 

Feel free to contact me for more details 

 I offer online supervision.

Face to face sessions can be arranged subject to availability up to 4pm. 

I have a supervisory contract which outlines both my responsibilities and yours as a new supervisee, some of this can be seen on my website sammanleytherapy.com . 

We can go through this and amend as appropriate and look to get to know each other and make sure this is the right fit, as sometimes this just isn't the case on either of our parts. I do feel the supervisory relationship is a very important one. 
I know I want to feel I can bring anything to my supervisor. So feel free to contact me for a chat or a short zoom before making any decisions.
