About Sheree
Sheree Sams is a PACFA counsellor with 16 years of experience in schools, hospitals, community welfare and private practice. She works with adults who are feeling stuck after changes in work, relationships or health, and with people handling stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem and life transitions. She also supports those navigating ADHD-related concerns and identity shifts.
Sheree uses evidence-based talk therapies alongside creative methods. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and broader psychotherapeutic approaches, and brings arts, music and movement into sessions for clients who want those options. These creative elements are used to access feelings and strengths that words alone may not reach.
Her background includes mentoring and clinical supervision using the Step-Up Model. That work has involved supporting other therapists and health professionals across clinical settings. She has worked with neurodivergent people, and with caregivers managing long-term stress and chronic illness.
Sessions often include practical strategies for nervous system regulation and lifestyle adjustments such as movement or exercise when helpful. Sheree encourages exploring identity questions, including faith deconstruction and religious trauma, without pushing a particular outcome.
Her style is straightforward and relational. She helps people clarify what matters now, try different ways of coping, and notice strengths they already have. To begin, people choose the online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule an initial session.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Sheree blends acceptance-based therapy and broader psychotherapy methods with creative, body-informed work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action. Psychotherapy provides space to talk through past patterns and current stresses to develop clearer coping strategies.She also uses creative techniques such as integrative arts and movement to reach feelings that can be hard to name. These methods can help with grief, chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation and issues where words alone feel limiting. The therapist and client decide together which approaches to try based on needs and preferences.
Finding the right fit is collaborative: sessions begin with discussion of goals, prior experiences and what methods feel most useful. The therapist will adapt tools and suggest lifestyle or movement options when they support nervous system regulation and daily functioning.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also makes creative approaches and practical exercises possible in familiar surroundings, helping people test strategies in their everyday life.
