Samantha also works as a Sexual Health Advisor for the NHS, visiting colleges, universities, army barracks, and LGBTQ+ clubs to promote safe sex practises and to promote sexual health testing. Samantha also offers therapy for a registered LGBTQ+ charity in Cheshire.

Prior to training as a sex therapist, Samantha has a unique background working alongside dogs, rescuing them, rehabilitating them, and looking after them for customers alongside her dedicated team. Samantha has spent years developing a deep appreciation for the human – animal bond, and her nurturing and empathetic nature has naturally translated into her work as a therapist.

Samantha is driven by her passion for understanding and supporting diverse expressions of human sexuality and this is apparent in her knowledge and experience as a kink aware therapist.

Samantha brings a non-judgemental and open-minded approach to her practice, creating a safe space for individuals and couples to explore their sexual desires and preferences, including those that fall outside of the traditional norms.

Samantha works with a range of sexual function issues and relationship problems, of which she has a deep understanding of empathy and acceptance. Samantha’s clients appreciate her warmth, understanding and her ability to integrate her diverse experiences into her therapeutic practice fostering a sense of safety and trust.

Samantha is a pluralistic therapist where she understands that each client deserves to have personalised approach that works for them, a plan that is bespoke to them and she works alongside the client to support them.
