About me and my therapy practice

Sam Shepherd (he/him)

Counsellor and Therapist

Hello, I’m Sam, an integrative counsellor working with adults in East London. I’m a registered member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ).

Working as an integrative counsellor means I work with person-centred, psychodynamic and CBT influences, which allow me to tailor my approach. I recognise each client has unique differences, so I work creatively and holistically in my practice. My creativity embraces an organic approach in order to work to your strengths and personal needs. The creative nature of my practice is supported by 15 years as a designer in the creative industry. I hope to offer an open space where we work collaboratively, with trust and an openness to feedback, so our work can evolve and grow.

Counselling

People may come for counselling when they feel lost or stuck in life, and their emotions may become overwhelming. There might be a loss of connection within themselves, others, or their environment. Counselling nurtures our innate ability for growth, and through self-awareness and compassion, you can begin to reconnect with yourself. It takes courage to come to counselling, and I hope to offer you a confidential space where you feel safe and supported with eventually trust in our relationship for you to be your authentic self.

Who do I work with?

I work with clients who want long-term work and may, for example, explore their past and how it influences their present lives. I also work short-term with people who may have a specific goal or problem they want to process. I have experience and work with clients from ethnic, cultural and socioeconomically diverse backgrounds.

What do I work with?

Areas I’ve worked with include anxiety, low mood, depression, relationship issues, substance misuse, bullying, anger, grief, cultural conflicts, work issues, life changes, gender & sexuality, family issues, trauma, abuse, suicidal thoughts, loneliness, self-esteem issues, career and life choices, religion.

Areas of interest

Difference and diversity were a focus of my training, which continues in practice and professional development. I’m connected with Pink Therapy, the LGBTQ organisation working with gender, sex and relationship diversity.

I offer an initial free 15-minute phone call to discuss your needs and for you to find out more about me and how I work.
