About Samantha
Samantha Quinn is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD-related difficulties, and challenges from life changes. Samantha also supports those dealing with grief, anger, intimacy concerns, addictions and relationship or family worries.
Her approach draws on practical therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. She uses Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas when relationships and connection are part of the issue. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps and on understanding the patterns that keep problems going.
Samantha describes her work as collaborative. She listens for the practical effects of a problem and helps people try small changes to see what helps. Conversations usually include noticing thoughts and feelings, and trying out different ways of responding to them.
She also brings coaching skills specifically related to ADHD to help with motivation and organisation when that is part of the picture. This can include planning, pacing and strategies to reduce overwhelm so people can manage day-to-day tasks more easily.
Samantha aims to adapt sessions to each person’s needs and preferences. She works in English and accepts international clients. Before booking, people should confirm the current session options and practical arrangements so they know exactly how to proceed.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and values that matter to them, and then try small actions that align with those values. This can reduce the hold of shame and guilt by shifting focus from controlling thoughts to living in line with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and recurring self-critical thinking.Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods with the client and agree together which ideas to try first. That collaborative process helps match techniques to specific goals and day-to-day realities.
Confirm the session formats before booking, as options are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in during a break. They also allow work with paperwork, worksheets and reflective exercises on screen or by email, which many people find practical for continuing tasks between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the pace and tools of therapy to suit each person’s needs and schedule.
