About Samantha
Samantha Johnson is a Person-Centred and Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with three years' practice since qualifying in 2020. She is a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, parenting, self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes.
Samantha combines Person-Centred values with the practical tools of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. She listens to what matters to each person and uses straightforward techniques to help manage unhelpful thoughts and reduce overwhelm. Sessions are focused and practical while respecting how someone prefers to work.
Before moving into private practice she spent over eight years in educational settings. That background included supporting children and young people with additional needs and working closely with parents and school staff. This experience shaped her awareness of how emotional struggles affect daily routines and family dynamics.
With adults she addresses a wide range of issues, from low mood and grief to relationship communication and personal development. She also supports people facing panic attacks, body image concerns, caregiver stress and life transitions such as divorce and midlife reassessment.
Samantha describes practical steps you can take between sessions, such as thought records and activity planning. She encourages clear, small goals that fit into everyday life. To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire before booking their first session.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Samantha uses Person-Centred values alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Person-Centred work focuses on listening closely and helping someone clarify their own thoughts and feelings. It supports people who need space to talk and reflect without pressure.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy involves identifying patterns of thinking that increase anxiety and testing out small behavioural changes. CBT is helpful for panic attacks, social worry, and managing low mood because it gives clear, repeatable techniques to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Samantha will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she will adapt the balance of listening and practical skill-building over time.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people work with a therapist based in another location, including international clients, while keeping the focus on practical support and skills that carry into everyday life.
