Hello, my
name is Sam and I am an English
Counselling Psychologist and
psychotherapist who has moved
from France and is now based in
Spain offering online and
face-to-face counselling. You do
not have to be in crisis or on
the verge of one, before
choosing to seek support. It may
be that you would like help
dealing with a life change, are
in need of support with a
relationship difficulty, or have
a specific event or problem you
are facing that you would like
to talk through with someone who
is removed from your personal
circumstances.
There are periods when life can
be a struggle and most people at
some point will need some
support to work things out and
find a way forward when they are
feeling stuck. Talking to a
professional who will listen
deeply to your experiences can
help you to untangle difficult
thoughts and emotions. As a
psychologist and
psychotherapist, I seek to offer
a safe, supportive, confidential
space that is separate from your
everyday life where you can talk
about what is on your mind.
About Psychotherapy
There are different approaches
to psychotherapy, so it is
important for you to find a
therapist whose philosophy and
way of working feels
appropriate. It is also
important to find someone you
feel comfortable working with,
so I would encourage you to meet
with several therapists if you
are in a position to do so.
As an integrative practitioner,
I do not adhere rigidly to a
specific model or way of
working, but rather I adapt and
draw on a variety of different
approaches to tailor how we work
in a way that will be most
beneficial to you as an
individual. One of the most
important aspects of my role is
to create an environment where
you feel safe enough to explore
yourself and your experiences of
the world and of others, without
fear of judgement or conditions.
I will support this by
reflecting my understanding of
what you think and feel and how
you have made sense of the world
and your life. This kind of
exploration can help you decide
what you feel is helpful and
productive for you and what
could be different if you were
to initiate change.
I do not think it is my role to
tell you what to do. Rather, I
believe my job is to help you
move to a position where you
feel able to take steps to
progress towards your goals and
to attain fulfilment in your
life, your relationships and
your work.
Qualifications & Experience
I have a Doctorate in
Counselling Psychology from the
well-renowned Metanoia Institute
in London and am accredited with
the British Psychological
Society (BPS) and the UK Council
for Psychotherapy (UKCP).
I abide by the UKCP and BPS
strict ethical frameworks for
good practice in ‘Counselling
and Psychotherapy’. Within
these, I am required to maintain
client confidentiality and
attend regular supervision of my
clinical practice so that I
conscientiously provide my
clients with an ethically sound
and professional service.
