About
Sheree Sams, Clinical Integrative Arts Therapy at Raise and Trailblaze.
I am a gentle, non-judgmental, caring, and nurturing practitioner with over 15 years of experience across school systems, hospitals, community welfare, and private practice, supporting children, adults, and families.
With a special focus on care for the carers, self-care and work/life balance and neurodivergence, I am trained in the Step-Up Model as a Clinical Supervisor, mentoring and guiding other therapist's and health professionals in the field.
My approach is warm, out-of-the-box, and deeply rooted in a passion for neuroscience, somatic body-mind connections, and holistic wellbeing.
Alongside evidence-based talk therapies like ACT and Psychotherapy, I am a Clinical Integrative Arts Therapist. I love bringing creative elements, such as the arts and music for those who are interested, into our sessions to help you process what words alone cannot always reach, bringing to the surface strengths and aspects of self you may not yet be aware of.
I can also incorporate movement, exercise, and valuable relevant lifestyle changes to support nervous system regulation and self-care.
I have a special passion for seeing people as a whole and meeting them wherever they are in life. This includes working with neurodivergent individuals (including Autism and ADHD), navigating parenting challenges, and helping clients untangle stress and anxiety.
I am also passionate about supporting clients through faith deconstruction, religious trauma, and major identity shifts.
Whether working with adults seeking deeper self-worth or families navigating major life transitions, and more peace in their daily lives, my goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can focus on nurturing yourself, healing, feeling less alone, and truly loving your life.
Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling, authentic life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process and help you blaze your own trail, whatever that looks like for you. I'm proud of you for simply showing up, because I do believe that you matter.
What a first session looks like
Our first session is a gentle opportunity to get to know one another, explore what brings you to counselling and what you hope to gain.
I offer a warm, compassionate and collaborative space where you can share at your own pace, without pressure or judgement. My approach is flexible and integrative, drawing on Counselling & Clinical Arts therapy, creative reflection and body-based awareness where appropriate.
Together, typically via phone or video, we'll begin to understand your experiences, identify your needs and values, and explore meaningful ways forward that feel authentic to you.
