Meet Samantha Bennett, psychotherapist in Cardiff.

My story

A path that found me.

My route into this work was personal long before it was professional. I have walked through my own seasons of darkness and learned that healing is rarely tidy , it is patient, brave, and so often beautiful. Today I offer the kind of space I once needed: one where you can arrive exactly as you are.

Training & accreditation

Trained, supervised, accountable.

My approach

Integrative, gentle, you-led.

Psychosynthesis is the ground of my practice, with person-centred, trauma-informed and mindfulness-based threads woven in where they help. Together we move at your pace. There is no script and no rush. If you're curious about the rhythm of our work, here's how it works.

Therapy sessions take place in person at Samantha's Cardiff therapy room, or online for clients across Wales and the wider UK. For mediation, Samantha also travels across South Wales and Mid Wales.

My values

Honesty, warmth, fierce kindness.

• Confidentiality and consent at every step.
• Inclusive, anti-oppressive, faith-respecting practice.
• Permission to feel everything, and to rest when needed.
• Endings that honour the work, never rushed.
