Sometimes on our journey through life we encounter turbulent waters, tall mountains or treacherous weather that can make it hard to see the way forward or where to change direction. Our old ways of thinking, relating or coping that helped us along the way previously might no longer work for us here, and sometimes old stories, experiences and memories can pop up instead, and we can feel stuck. 

My name is Samantha McEwan, I am a BACP registered psychotherapist and I work with my clients to collaboratively make sense of their experiences, identify goals and and navigate together a way forward that is effective and meaningful and aligned with their needs and values. 

You will experience a supportive, compassionate, and trauma-informed approach. I provide Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and related therapies tailored to your individual needs to support recovery of your wellbeing and personal growth. 

I treat a wide range of difficulties affecting mental health and wellbeing in individuals' personal, relational or working lives such as:

• social or generalised anxiety
• depression
• low self-esteem and confidence
• overthinking
• numbness and dissociation
• stress
• panic
• poor emotion regulation 
• attachment and relationship issues
• binge eating or bulimia 
• childhood trauma and abuse
• chronic or complex trauma and PTSD/ cPTSD
• career difficulties, workplace stress, bullying or burnout

Sometimes these difficulties can arise from childhood experiences or other events and their impact on the beliefs we develop about ourselves and the world around us.

Therapy can further help you to understand yourself and your experiences better, and support you to move forward in a positive direction.
