Sam Maiden

INGEGRATIVE THERAPIST

Approach and background

Hello, I’m Sam, a registered psychotherapist working in South London and online.

I believe therapy offers a unique space to pause, reflect and explore your thoughts and feelings in safety and without judgement.

I have a wide range of clinical experience working with clients from all walks of life, and have worked in depth with young adults and students; neurodivergent adults, anxiety and burnout; and people in creative industries.

Before becoming a psychotherapist I worked in the demanding events and hospitality industry, which gave me first-hand experience of the pressures of high-stress environments and the impact they can have on wellbeing. This insight helps me relate to clients who feel under pressure, overwhelmed or burned out.

As an integrative therapist, I mainly follow a psychodynamic and person-centred approach, which means I believe our previous experiences and relationships shape who we are today, and that everyone has the potential for personal growth. Together, we’ll develop an approach that feels supportive and meaningful for you.
