Samantha Hill , BACP

Samantha Hill is a UK-licensed therapist with seven years of professional experience and holds membership in the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. She began her career working in addiction and trauma services and has since established a private practice where she focuses on relationship concerns, family conflict, boundaries, communication difficulties, and both narcissistic and emotional abuse.

Samantha works from the belief that each person carries deep knowledge about their own life. She supports clients to explore the links between thoughts and emotions, gently reducing fear and anxiety while shining a light on personal strengths and resilience. Through reflective conversation and practical strategies, she helps people make sense of past experiences and move toward clearer choices and greater wellbeing.

Alongside her counselling practice, Samantha is a Holistic Life and Health Coach, which means she pays attention to the mind-body connection. She guides clients through habit change and offers practical support with work-life balance, diet, exercise and related lifestyle changes to complement therapeutic work.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Samantha uses several evidence-informed approaches to support clients online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns, clarify personal values, and take action toward a meaningful life even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and how early bonds shape current patterns of connection. This approach can help people understand attachment wounds, improve intimacy, and resolve recurring relationship difficulties.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, mood concerns and problems with coping skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Samantha works with clients to identify their needs, goals and preferences, and adapts methods so therapy fits each person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging allow clients to engage from home or elsewhere and to choose formats that suit their schedule and comfort. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and integrate therapy into everyday life.
