Samantha Furniss

Clinical Psychologist

verified by TherapyRoute

“I specialise in working with adults and adolescents in individual psychotherapy, from a psychodynamic perspective.”

About Me

I am a Clinical Psychologist in Walmer, Gqeberha. I have experience working with a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties, including mood disorders, trauma, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation and problems related to stress and life transitions.

Approach

Working psychodynamically, I help patients trace how past relationships shape present feelings to shift unhelpful patterns. In my practice and via online sessions, the aim is to reflect on emotions, notice repeated emotional reactions (anger, anxiety, numbness), and experiment with different responses. This approach suits adults and adolescents seeking thoughtful, collaborative therapy that balances depth with everyday coping.
