Samantha Wilkinson , BACP

Samantha Wilkinson is a UK-credentialed therapist with six years of professional experience supporting people through a range of life challenges. She works with concerns such as stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and issues around motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Samantha has developed particular experience and a strong interest in working with neurodivergent clients and brings that understanding into her practice.

Samantha is accredited with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which denotes membership in a recognised UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. She approaches each person as the expert of their own story and focuses on identifying and building the client’s existing strengths to address whatever is causing distress. Beginning therapy is often a brave step, and Samantha offers steady, supportive guidance to help clients move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Samantha integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to tailor support to each person’s needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take practical steps toward a meaningful life, while teaching skills to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current patterns, helping clients explore and change relational dynamics and emotional responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured techniques to identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Samantha works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and circumstances. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Samantha is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from wherever clients are, and to choose the format that feels most supportive for their work in therapy.
