About Samantha
Samantha Hill is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She supports people dealing with relationship and family issues, parenting strains, low self-esteem, stress and anxiety, addiction, grief, intimacy concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, compassion fatigue and ADHD. She also works with attachment and abandonment worries, body image, chronic illness and chronic pain related concerns, codependency and communication problems.
She began her career working in addiction and trauma services and now runs a private practice. Sessions focus on clear, practical conversation about what is happening in a person's life. Samantha uses straightforward questions and reflective listening to help people notice patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviour.
Samantha draws on a mix of approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. That range helps when the issue is about emotions, relationships or day-to-day coping. Practical tools and short exercises are offered alongside talking work.
In sessions she pays attention to how early attachments and recent events shape current responses. People often look at boundaries, communication and how to manage urges or compulsions. She also addresses lifestyle factors such as sleep, eating and routines that affect mood and energy.
People who choose Samantha usually want a direct, conversational style that links feelings to actions. She encourages small changes to daily habits and helps people weigh options for longer-term decisions such as separation or seeking further specialist support.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions are used
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing thoughts and feelings and choosing actions that reflect personal values. It can help when guilt or shame keeps someone stuck and they want to re-engage with life despite difficult emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationships and current bonds to understand patterns in adult relationships. It can help with abandonment fears, trust and problems with intimacy.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Samantha will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means approaches can be adjusted as needs change over time.
The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible for people living abroad to work with a registered professional in the United Kingdom. Practical arrangements such as appointment length and timing are usually agreed at the first scheduling step.
