Samantha Calladine-Rose

Why Choose Me?

I am passionate about assisting couples and individuals to deepen emotional and physical intimacy, improve communication, and effectively navigate relationship difficulties. I am a trained Sex Therapist (Psychosexual) as well as a experienced Relationship Counsellor enabling both issues to be addressed where necessary. I offer an unbiased and supportive environment where clients can freely explore their concerns. The sessions help rebuild trust which may have been damaged by years of feeling unheard, or perhaps betrayal due to an affair. Common feelings of anger, sadness, shame or guilt can often hinder progress, making it difficult to determine the next steps without help—whether that involves rebuilding together or moving forward individually. These unresolved emotions can explain why recurring conflicts and arguments persist within relationships.

Session Details –

Each session lasts for one hour, with flexibility to accommodate short-term (3-6 sessions) or long-term ongoing therapy depending on your needs. In the first session I complete an assessment that identifies the problem and clarifies your goals. I work in person face to face or online providing access and convenience for clients to incorporate into their existing commitments.

Methods & Experience –
My work as a therapist is characterised by gentle challenge and collaboration. I draw upon over 18 years of experience as a Relationship Therapist, beginning at Relate, and more than 22 years as a registered Social Worker supporting families with diverse backgrounds and lifestyles. My approach combines several therapeutic models (see below Types of Therapy) including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, particularly for addressing sexual issues. For many psychosexual challenges like erectile dysfunction, a clear plan that offers practical, actionable steps would be customised for each of my clients. Therapy goals are regularly reviewed with you to monitor progress, and I also enjoy sharing practical tools to encourage clients if they wish, to expand thinking beyond sessions.

I have successfully supported couples who initially felt hopeless, helping them achieve more fulfilling relationships and rediscover sexual pleasure. Additionally, I have considerable experience working with clients in demanding professions, such as the emergency services (Police, GPs, Fire Service, Paramedics), and am attuned to the particular stresses these individuals encounter.

As a Psychosexual Therapist and Relationship Therapist my aim is to facilitate a protected space in sessions that encourages clients to build deeper connections, emotional and physical intimacy, improve communication, and that addresses complex relational and sexual challenges. This is offered through a tailored, empathetic and integrative therapeutic approach.
