Samantha Holt is a counsellor who helps people dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship problems.

About Samantha

Samantha Holt is a counsellor who helps people dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship problems. She introduces a calm, listening presence and focuses on what clients want to change. Her approach is practical and straightforward, aimed at small steps that make daily life easier.

She draws on attachment work to look at how early relationships affect current bonds and trust. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas are used to spot unhelpful thinking and change day-to-day habits.

Background and approach

Trauma-focused methods guide work when past abuse or painful events affect sleep, mood or safety. Her background includes five years working as a counsellor with a range of complex presentations. Samantha also holds NCPS, which is shown as her credential.

She speaks English and can work with international clients by online means. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. This range lets people pick what fits their routines, whether that is a shorter check-in by text or a longer conversation on video.

People who come to Samantha often bring stress, grief, problems with eating, addiction, anger or parenting strain, and she adapts the work to each person. Her style is gentle but direct, helping clients notice patterns, try different ways of coping and build clearer choices for their daily lives.

Online support

Samantha combines Attachment-Based work and Trauma-Focused Therapy to address how past relationships and painful events affect current mood and behaviour. Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape trust and closeness, which can help with intimacy issues and relationship strain. Trauma-focused work helps people process upsetting memories and lessen their day-to-day impact on sleep, mood and safety.

She also uses elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help spot unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes. Together these approaches are used flexibly; Samantha will work with each person to decide which methods feel most useful and adjust the plan as goals change. Finding the right mix is part of the therapy and is decided collaboratively based on needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls suit deeper conversations and visual connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a quicker way to check in, and text messaging can be useful for short updates or ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
