About me and my therapy practice
My name is Samantha Blackmore. I trained as an Integrative Counsellor 20 years ago and since qualifying, have practised in a variety of locations, including GP’s Surgeries, Relate Centres and my own private practice. Changing my location from Devon back to Essex after many years, a coming home of sorts! I am a member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ) and fully subscribe to their code of ethics. My training means that I can call upon several different theoretical approaches in my work with clients. More of which upon the Services page. My training has continuously developed and I've gained specialist Couples Therapy skills from my work with The Relate Institute. It is my fundamental belief that we all have the potential for growth and it is exactly this that empowers us to have a better quality of life, both in our relationships and careers. Understanding the patterns we live by gives us the potential to change the things we perhaps struggle with. I understand that it can be difficult to go to a Counsellor. I aim to create a comfortable atmosphere in which my clients can begin to explore their difficult issues and feelings.

About me and my therapy practice
As a supervisor, my aim is to provide a safe, contained situation, where we can explore issues in supervision, including safeguarding, ethical and moral dilemmas. I also aim to create an environment where everything can be explored, including transference and counter-transference. I've worked as a therapist for 20 years and recently qualified as a supervisor, which I did at the Iron Mill Institute. I feel I have benefited hugely from supervision in the past and my aim is to offer this to supervisees in the future.
Practice description
I am excited to be moving back to Essex after many years living and working in Devon.
I will be available to work with clients from mid July 2023.
My first session
In our first session, we would spend time contracting what you would need from supervision and from me, which would give us a framework to move forward, and we would review this regularly.
