Samantha Campbell

Hello everyone, a very warm welcome , Its lovely to have you on board. My name is Sam ,I am a fully Qualified integrative Psychotherapist from Glasgow.

I am fully insured and BACP registered.

I have build up my own private practice over the last 4 years.

My focus is to work with clients to find solutions to their issues they maybe facing in life, and life is tough for all kind of reasons.

I have a passion for helping people, to better understand themselves and navigate life's challenges .

I am a firm believer in not one size fits all approach , I tailor therapy to the individual , recognising that everyone's experiences , strengths and challenges are different.

My aim, is to provide evidence based information, practical tools and compassionate guidance to support your journey, but also to build a good solid therapeutic relationship thats real, honest and reliable.

I provide a genuine , empathetic, non judgemental, congruent and safe environment, where you will feel safe and comfortable exploring what has brought you to Counselling in the first place .

The therapeutic relationship in my opinion is built on trust, openeness and mutual respect between two parties and this is what I am providing for you . I provide a supportive yet challenging environment for my clients to explore all areas of their lives. We will be working together towards inner peace , validation and therapeutic movement .

Counselling can feel daunting, and intimidating however, it is worth keeping in mind that therapists are human just the same as you, so finding someone you can feel comfortable talking to is an important part of the process.

I believe everyone has the capacity for growth and healing , even during life's most difficult moments and so together we can explore the challenges your facing at a pace that feels right for you. Counselling should help you gain insight, build resilence and move towards a more fulfilling life.

You will be accepted just as you are, no judement, I haven't got it all worked out either,.i have flaws, anxieties, vices and vulnerabilities just like you. Therefore i am not a scary person behind the counselling phone, waiting patiently for each session with contempt and shame in my heart for you its quite the opposite. What i will do is listen intently with Empathy and understanding, I will be professional and confidential throughout our theraptutic relationship, with a kind smile and a welcoming heart.

For the duration of your session, you are the most important person to me for those 60 mins why ? Becasue ive been there .

My life experience mould my practice more than any textbook ever could so that is what I bring to the table.

I know it takes courage to reach out , and I would be honoured to walk alongside you on your journey towards greater understanding, healing, goals for the future and lasting change .

I look forward to working with you

Warm regards Sam

My approach to therapy is always client led.

what i provide is support, suggestions and tools along the way, this maintains, structure and a goal plan for your treatment, with your wellbeing and needs always at the forefront of our sessions. Humans are shaped by our unique experiences and life circumstances so no single approach works for everyone.

I work with a kind , approachable manner.

I believe when we are understood we are able to explore our thoughts, emotions and experiences better which leads to greater self awareness and meaningful change.

I am Easy going, friendly, approachable, kind and understanding.

I tend not to be so clinical, because some clients find that off putting however i can be if that is what the client prefers , i have been trained to a high standard of professionalism.

Whatever approach works for you, will work for me to enable you to feel empowered to be yourself.

Please Note - Clients are charged for missed or unattended sessions, to cover the therapists loss of income and business overheads. , as an independent practitioner, session times are reserved solely for each client, last minute cancelations and absences mean I cannot fill that hour so therefore the session must be paid for. late cancelations and missed appointments impact both the the therapeutic process and the availability for other clients seeking support.
