About Samantha

Samantha Taitt is a counsellor who helps people deal with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, sleep problems and life changes. She works with people facing depression, relationship strains, addiction issues, grief and parenting stresses. Her practical focus also covers career concerns, motivation, bipolar fluctuations, ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Samantha uses a collaborative, client-centred approach. She treats each person as the expert on their life and builds on their strengths. Sessions aim to be straightforward and to fit around what the person needs right now.

Her methods draw on cognitive behavioural ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mixed with attachment-informed ways of looking at relationships. She also uses elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to teach coping skills and emotional regulation.

With six years of experience working online across the UK and Europe, she has supported people from different places and backgrounds. Samantha holds NCPS, which is listed as her credential.

In a session she will listen, help clarify goals, and suggest practical steps to try between meetings. The emphasis is on small, achievable changes that can improve sleep, reduce overwhelm and make everyday life easier.

To start, people complete a short questionnaire that helps match them and then schedule sessions according to availability. She welcomes international clients and conducts therapy in English.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Samantha combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred ideas to create a practical way of working online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and supports actions that match personal values. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and building a trusting relationship so the person can explore what matters most.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Samantha discusses goals and preferences in early sessions, and she and the client decide which techniques to use. This collaborative process means the plan can change as needs shift over time.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week, avoiding travel time and making it easier to keep continuity when living or working in different places. The original profile mentions video, phone or chat as options, so confirm the exact session formats offered before booking. The emphasis is on making therapy manageable alongside daily life and on trying tools that can improve sleep, reduce stress and support steady progress.
