Sam Agnew , BACP

Sam Agnew is a London-based, integrative transpersonal psychotherapist who combines broad clinical training with a compassionate, person-focused approach. She is BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) registered, and she works with clients across a wide range of life challenges by tailoring therapy to each person’s needs.

Sam’s practice covers difficulties such as autism and ADHD, alcoholism and substance addiction, LGBTQIA-related concerns, early life trauma, PTSD and CPTD, and other forms of trauma and abuse. She also supports people experiencing spiritual emergence, intimacy and relationship difficulties, hoarding, emotional neglect, family conflict, lifestyle crises, grief, nightmares and night terrors, phobias, existential distress, and struggles with self-acceptance and interpersonal skills.

Drawing on an integrative, transpersonal framework, Sam attends to multiple levels of the self and adapts methods from different therapies to fit each client’s situation. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in the therapeutic relationship and aims to inform, guide, and support clients as they take the often courageous first steps toward a more fulfilling life. Sam works collaboratively with people to develop a treatment plan that reflects their goals and circumstances.

Integrative approaches and online therapy options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and develop psychological flexibility by learning practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that matter to them. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. It explores attachment needs and helps clients build more secure connections, which can be especially helpful for relationship difficulties, abandonment issues, and trauma-related attachment concerns.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Sam collaborates with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as therapy progresses so the approach stays responsive and practical.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility - appointments can happen by video call or phone, and some people find live chat or text-based messaging fits their daily life better. These options make it easier to access consistent support, fit sessions around work or caregiving, and continue therapy even when circumstances change.
