About Samantha
Samantha Haig is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Social anxiety and phobia are included among the issues she supports people with.
Samantha offers straightforward, practical conversations. She helps people talk through grief and loss, regain motivation, and manage the daily impacts of anxiety and panic. Sessions focus on concrete steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon.
Her work addresses life changes and midlife concerns alongside mood and panic problems. She listens for patterns around control, guilt and shame, and helps people consider different ways of responding. Communication problems and feelings of isolation are explored with attention to what feels most useful in everyday life.
Samantha explains approaches in plain language and adapts the plan as things develop. She encourages small, manageable changes and checks progress as therapy continues. This makes it easier to see what works and what needs adjusting.
People who value direct, practical conversation about feelings and behaviour may find her approach helpful. She supports women’s issues and themes of self-love and forgiveness where relevant. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used in plain, practical ways. One common approach is problem-focused work that identifies specific behaviours and thoughts to change; this helps with panic, worry and repeated avoidance. Another approach uses grief-focused conversation, where loss and adjustment are discussed in small steps to help people manage practical and emotional impacts. These descriptions explain what happens rather than promising particular results.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and what feels comfortable. They will try methods and adapt them as progress is reviewed, so the plan can change if it does not fit.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or avoiding the need to be on camera for a session. Many people find this flexibility helps them keep appointments and apply what they practise between sessions.
