Heal, Transform, and Thrive with Me
Hi, I’m Samantha. I’m here to help you heal trauma, understand and process your emotions, break free from survival mode, and transform your life. Together, we’ll work towards the life you’ve always envisioned—free, peaceful, and authentic.
If you’re a hardworking, high-achieving individual in your 20s or 30s who feels stuck, I’m here for you. Maybe you’ve noticed recurring patterns—emotional triggers, anxiety, addiction, or the weight of unresolved trauma—that no amount of effort or external resources can fix.
I’ve worked with individuals just like you—people who are hardworking in many ways but still feel trapped by emotional pain, self-doubt, or physical distress. Your body may be trying to tell you something through sleepless nights, tension, panic, or other symptoms. These are signs that it’s time to heal the root causes, not just manage the symptoms. Let’s begin your healing journey together.
What I Offer
A Holistic Approach to Healing
Healing isn’t just about understanding your mind; it’s about reconnecting with your body and emotions. I combine cognitive therapy with somatic work, trauma-informed practices, and emotional processing to address the deeper layers of what’s holding you back.
Deep Emotional Healing
Together, we’ll explore the core wounds and limiting beliefs that keep you stuck. I’ll help you release bottled-up emotions, break unhealthy patterns, and reconnect with your true self in a way that feels safe and empowering.
A Safe and non-judgemental Space
I provide a nurturing, non-judgmental environment where you can share openly, feel seen, and experience unconditional support. Here, you’re not “broken”—you’re human, and healing is not only possible but within reach.
Why People Come to Me
You may feel frustrated that previous efforts haven’t led to lasting change. You’ve tried pushing through, “moving on,” or distracting yourself, but deep down, you know that true transformation requires addressing the root of the issue.
I help clients who feel exhausted from:
- Dealing with past issues or in the moment issues
- Battling addiction, trauma, anxiety, or self-doubt.
- Exhaustion from constantly striving, seeking validation, overreacting to triggers, and living in survival mode.
- Feeling like nothing is ever enough or something is wrong.
What You’ll Gain
By working together, you’ll:
- Heal past trauma and emotional wounds and gain a deeper level of self-awareness, connection, and understanding.
- Release survival mode and find true peace in yourself and in your life.
- Break free from uncomfortable emotions, old patterns and unhealthy coping mechanisms.
- Reconnect with your inner self to create, choose, and align a life that truly reflects who you are.
- Find joy and clarity in being present.
My Promise to You
I'm here to walk this journey with you. I believe in your potential to heal and thrive. Together, we’ll address and heal the root of your emotional and physical pain that’s holding you back, so you can live a life that is authentically free from the past.
Healing starts within—and it starts with you.

"Samantha has been a lifesaver for me - truly. She enabled me to get a much better understanding of myself and my own value - something which I thought I had lost, but through her guidance I not only found it again, but learned how to navigate through life in a much healthier and happier way. Right from the first few sessions I realised she knows exactly which questions to ask, whether to push further or to take back some of the throttle, and whether to let me ramble on or to take control of the conversation for a moment. I'm lucky to have found someone like her and cannot recommend her enough!"
"I truly believe things happen for a reason. Professional and personal circumstances made me consider therapy so I signed up with Anti-loneliness. This is one of the best decisions I made for myself. It's only been a few months but I can already feel the impact of our sessions. Samantha is a great listener, although she comes prepared with a plan, she's also able to switch gears to focus on what needs healing based on what I share during each session. We are working towards certain goals but she's also attentive to what is needed in the moment and I love that her approach also includes monitoring sensations in my body. She is kind, supportive and can provide comic relief by cracking a few jokes here and there. Therapy with her doesn't have to be heavy all the time. I appreciate how she breaks down my behaviors/reactions and connects them to past experiences, by doing that she helps me understand myself better. I trust that she is giving me the tools to break free from the negative thoughts, find my voice and take control of my life. I know that she'd encourage me to see my progress as a result of the efforts I'm putting in, which I do, but I can't help but be grateful for the help and guidance she's providing. I am not alone. There is a world of possibilities."
