Hi, I’m Sam.

Therapy & Mental Coaching Support for Athletes and Young People.

About me

As someone who once struggled with anxiety, depression, low confidence, and stress, I know how alone you can feel as a young person and athlete.

I didn't think therapy could work for me.

Yet talking to someone changed my life - that’s why I’m dedicated to helping people who were like me. Who may not know where to start - because you don’t have to do it alone.

So now I run my own accredited private practice - specialised to support young people and athletes.

Let's Talk

Let’s break the Stigma.

It’s ok to not be ok.

My Approach

I use a blend of evidence-based therapies - including CBT, NLP, Hypnotherapy, and other cognitive and somatic approaches - rooted in Cognitive Hypnotherapy and aligned with NCH, CNHC, QCHPA, and NHS standards.

Every client receives a tailored, individualised approach based on their unique needs and experiences.

Designed to be tailored to YOU and your needs

By exploring the patterns beneath our thoughts, emotions and behaviours we can begin to understand and explore the root of what’s been holding you back. Together, at your pace, we can create a meaningful and lasting change that supports long-term growth.
