Samantha Hill, BACP

Samantha Hill is a counsellor who helps people with relationship strain, family and parenting stress, self-esteem, anxiety and coping with life changes. She also works with grief, addictions, intimacy-related concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, and compassion fatigue. Samantha lists ADHD among her focus areas. She practices in the United Kingdom and works with people from varied backgrounds, including international clients who can work with her in English.

Samantha started her career working in addiction and trauma services and has seven years of professional experience. She now runs a independent practice where she supports people dealing with boundaries, communication difficulties, narcissistic and emotional abuse, and blended family challenges. She draws on a range of therapeutic approaches rather than a single method.

Her practical style centres on helping people notice how thoughts and feelings connect. Sessions often involve reflecting on life experiences and identifying personal strengths. She also helps with habit change, work-life balance, diet and exercise where those areas affect wellbeing.

Samantha describes her work as collaborative. She encourages people to discover their own answers while offering structure and tools to reduce anxiety and fear. Conversations aim to be straightforward and focused on small, achievable steps.

She holds BACP registration, which is listed in her credentials, and combines talking therapy with holistic coaching for mind-body wellbeing. Prospective clients should use the service Start Therapy flow to match and schedule according to availability.

How these approaches are used in online therapy

Samantha draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and testing simple changes in behaviour, which can help with anxiety, stress and unhelpful habits. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current trust, closeness and communication, and can help with abandonment or attachment concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person’s needs, goals and preferences. Sessions can blend talking, practical exercises and reflection so people notice what helps most over time.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around family life, work breaks or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins when that suits a busy day, reduce travel time and let people use resources or exercises between sessions.
