About Samantha
Samantha McEwan is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She has four years of experience supporting people with anxiety, stress and depression. Samantha aims to create a calm, compassionate space where clients can talk through what is happening for them and take practical steps forward.
She works in a collaborative way. Sessions focus on understanding what keeps problems going and on learning skills that help day to day.
Background and approach
Samantha draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice patterns and try new responses. Clients commonly bring concerns such as relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, eating difficulties, burnout and anger. She also supports people facing life changes, caregiving stress, chronic illness and neurodiversity-related issues such as autism and ADHD.
Conversations look at thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and aim to build clearer choices. Samantha uses practical exercises, reflective listening and skill-building in sessions. She can explain strategies between meetings so people can practise in real life.
The work is paced to the person, with attention to what feels manageable. People often start by naming one or two immediate goals. From there Samantha helps them map out small steps and coping options.
The focus is on creating routines, reducing overwhelm and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Online support
Finding the best approach is part of the process and Samantha works collaboratively to do this. She will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest techniques that suit your needs. Together you can try different methods and adapt them as the work progresses so it fits your life.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a busy day or be used when bandwidth is low, and chat or messaging offer shorter check-ins or ongoing written support. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving or mobility needs while keeping the focus on practical coping and steady progress.
