Samantha Armstrong

I currently have availability on Wednesday evenings after 5.30pm and Saturday's from 9.30am.

My practice is full for face to face sessions at present.

I'm Samantha (She/ Her), a BACP registered Counsellor and Psychotherapist. I am a humanistic and integrative practitioner; fascinated by people, their lives and the relationship they have with themselves and others. 

I believe as people we have everything within us, to live a personally fulfilling life, however we can get stuck due to our personal histories and other significant life events. 

I offer a warm, accepting and safe space, for us to explore what you are going through, supporting curiosity and change, at a pace which is comfortable for you.

My background is working within mental health services, as a Registered Psychiatric Nurse, providing me with the opportunity to work alongside people from diverse personal backgrounds, who are experiencing a breadth of emotional well-being issues and significant life stressors. 

I have been in counselling and psychotherapy practice for the last three years and have volunteered within a community interest project and within the criminal justice sector. 

Some areas which I have worked in include: ambiguous loss; bereavement and grief; interpersonal and developmental trauma, attachment; feeling stuck in survival mode; domestic abuse; guilt and shame; identity; gender; sexuality; neurodiversity.

I know how daunting it can be taking the first step in finding a therapist which is a good fit for you. I invite you to book a free, no obligation 15 minute phone call or online Microsoft Teams/ Zoom session, for us to talk through any queries you may have, and to see if we are a good fit for each other.
