About Samantha
Samantha Holt helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or big life changes. She is a counsellor with NCPS and speaks English. Samantha aims to make the first steps into therapy easier for someone who is worried or uncertain.
Samantha uses a straightforward style in sessions. She listens to how a person describes their difficulties and tailors the work to what matters most. People bring issues such as relationship pain, trauma and abuse, problems with eating, addiction or struggles with mood and bipolar.
Background and approach
She also supports those dealing with anger, sleep problems, parenting pressures and career stress. Samantha draws on approaches that focus on how relationships shape feelings and behaviour. She pays attention to attachment patterns and how past events affect present reactions.
Cognitive approaches are used when practical changes to thoughts and routines can help reduce distress. Sessions are conversational and centred around the person’s goals. Samantha encourages people to say what they want from therapy and to move at a pace that suits them.
Work can include reflecting on difficult memories, learning new coping strategies and practising different ways of relating to others. Her background includes practice in the United Kingdom and experience caring for people with complex and repeated trauma. That experience informs a steady, problem-solving approach in sessions.
When people need help to manage addiction, eating issues, codependency or trauma reactions, she focuses on clear steps and realistic goals. Samantha aims to support people who want to feel more in control of their emotions and relationships. She helps clients build skills for daily life, improve sleep and manage stress so they can move forward.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, symptoms and preferences, and then suggest a mix of methods. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can change if something is not helping.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial cues and keep a face-to-face feel. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter notes, ongoing support between sessions or when someone prefers not to use audio. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and travel while keeping the focus on steady progress.
