How Can I Help You?
Hello and welcome! I’m Samantha – an experienced hypnotherapist based in Buckfastleigh. I specialise in helping clients with anxiety and related issues. Imagine what it would be like to feel calmer, more confident and positive and to rediscover the joy in life. I’m here to help you overcome those problems holding you back from being your best self.
I can help with a wide variety of different challenges like stress, panic attacks, negative/critical thinking, overwhelm, low mood, low self-esteem, lack of confidence, sleep problems, trauma, phobias, unwanted habits, weight loss and much more.
Hypnotherapy is an enjoyable, deeply relaxing and uplifting experience that can lead to transformation in many areas of life, far more quickly than you might expect. Clients generally finish therapy feeling more resilient, confident and capable….with an enhanced overall sense of well-being. You’ll also have a powerful set of tools to cope with the inevitable ups and downs of life. Life can feel better again! Ready for change? I’d love to hear from you.
Professional and Supportive
I trained with Adam Eason at the Anglo-European College of Therapeutic Hypnosis in 2011 and was awarded the highly regarded Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma. I’m fully registered to practice and committed to on-going training and supervision to keep my skills up to date. So you can expect a high level of guidance and support throughout your therapy.
I like to provide a relaxed, comfortable and supportive environment as we work together to achieve your goals. I feel passionate about supporting people to live healthier, happier, more fulfilled lives…. my aim is to bring out the best in you. I have a special interest in helping people to reduce anxiety and supporting women who are struggling with hot flushes. So if you’d like to feel more relaxed, calm, comfortable and in control, you’ve come to the right place.
I understand that asking for help is not always easy, so you can be assured of a sensitive and empathic approach. I offer a free initial consultation, with no pressure to book if it doesn’t feel right for you. I want you to feel confident I’m the right therapist for you. If you’re ready to make lasting changes in your life I’m here to help you.
BWRT®
I’m also an advanced BWRT® practitioner. Brain Working Recursive Therapy – known as BWRT® – is a dynamic new form of psychotherapy completely different to any other therapy. It’s a science based, grounded therapy that can bring rapid results. Most other therapies work on your response after it’s been generated, requiring you to explain what you’re thinking about – but with BWRT the problem is dealt with before it even gets to the conscious, thinking mind. We don’t use hypnosis and there’s no need to continually dig up the past – this is a solution focused therapy.
With BWRT® we can easily change the way you feel to the way you’d prefer to feel, think and act, replacing negative responses with new empowering responses which could include, for example, calmness and confidence in any situation. If you know how you want to be BWRT® can help – it’s that simple!
Ready to start feeling better? Let’s get the ball rolling! Please get in touch to book your free consultation, or to find out if I can help.
Menopause Relief Programme
Hot flushes, rivers of sweat and lack of sleep? If you’re struggling with the menopause and don’t want to, or can’t, take HRT – hypnotherapy could be the answer you’re looking for. With the Menopause Relief Programme you’ll learn how to effectively reduce the intensity and severity of hot flushes so that you can feel cool, calm and comfortable again. No medication – simply relaxation and imagery. In clinical trials hypnotherapy has been shown to reduce hot flushes and night sweats by as much as 80%.
Clients find this an uplifting and enjoyable process with many benefits, improving overall emotional and physical well-being.
Anxiety, low mood, irritability and brain fog are all common in peri and menopause. I know it can feel like you’re losing control of your body….and at times, your mind as well. Hypnotherapy can help you regain your sparkle, so that you can navigate this phase of life feeling more empowered. Please give me a call to find out if I can help – or email to book your free consultation. Life can feel better again!

A lovely calm aura which put me at ease
I initially visited Samantha as I was interested in BWRT after reading up on it to be an effective therapy. This proved to be true mainly because it was delivered by Samantha, who is not only professional with a wealth of information but also with a lovely calm aura which put me at ease. After a couple of successful BWRT sessions, I then chose to have some hypnotherapy. Samantha is a natural hypnotherapist and her work has greatly helped me with obstacles/issues that I had. I was also provided with techniques and tips to carry forward with. I would highly recommend Samantha as an excellent therapist.

Confidence and Self-Esteem
I want to say a massive thank you to Samantha for all she has done to help increase my confidence and self-esteem. With her professionalism and tailor-made sessions she has helped me to get back to doing what I love and enjoying it... and boosted my confidence in all aspects of my life. I highly recommend Samantha, not only is she wonderful at what she does but she's a lovely lady as well. Thank you Sam for everything.

After just two sessions I have seen brilliant results.
Working with Sam has completely changed the way I feel about work for the better! After just two sessions I have seen brilliant results. Rather than dreading meetings or presentations, I have been able to calmly prepare and participate or present. Absolutely the best investment I could have made in my career, and Sam is just so approachable and easy to work with!

Childhood Trauma
I approached Samantha as I was interested in having BWRT for childhood trauma that was causing some issues. Samantha has a lovely calm, caring aura, and I immediately felt at ease as I explained why I was seeking therapy. I now feel more confident to be me and confident with my boundaries and the choices I make. If I need any help in the future, I wouldn’t hesitate in calling her. I highly recommend Samantha and her style of working. Thank you Samantha.

I actually feel like I'm living, not just existing, now
After having a long lonely dark journey with my mental health BDD anxiety (Body Dysmorphic Disorder) my treatment with Samantha has been nothing short of a miracle. Her professional, non-judgemental and sympathetic approach is phenomenal. Hypnotherapy and BWRT has worked wonders for me…. I actually feel like I'm living, not just existing, now. I would not hesitate to recommend the treatment to anyone suffering mental or emotional health conditions/situations it really works. Thank you Samantha, truly thank you.

My sleeping is now so much more soothing
I came to Sam for problems with insomnia. My sleeping is now so much more soothing and smooth, but even better, many other things have improved too as we addressed fears and past events that have caused me suffering in different ways. Since the 6 session package I feel noticeably calmer, more confident and less afraid and fearful in general than I had become. What a wonderful help. I really recommend this therapy and Sam's talents and gift as a hypnotherapist. Thank you, Sam!

I was having hot flushes throughout the day
I was having hot flushes throughout the day I couldn’t control…they’d rocket up me, it was horrible…I couldn’t sleep through the night. You gave me techniques that worked almost instantly…it was incredible…I didn’t believe it would be that easy! I felt I suddenly had control…I was able to sleep…I feel I’m armed with a set of tools to get through life…it’s given me confidence! Your recordings were so special…your voice was very calming and soothing…it was amazing how you tailor made them to help me deal with what I was coping with each week…it was such a lovely experience. Thank you Sam!

Life long nail biting habit
I have had 3 sessions with Samantha to help with my life long nail biting habit. Her whole approach and professionalism throughout was excellent. Her calm manner and re-assuring tone always put me at ease. I no longer bite my nails and am fully aware that if I do so I am able to stop myself using the visualisations Samantha introduced to me. I would strongly recommend Samantha and hypnosis to anyone wanting to pursue this direction of help.

Samantha is kind, compassionate, understanding and non-judgemental.
It took me about 18 months to summon up the courage to contact Samantha. I had several issues - anxiety, travelling, fear of heights, sleep problems, fear of the dentist and traumas…some going back years…all going round my head at the same time and getting nowhere. What would I say to her? What would she think? All fears were unfounded as Samantha is kind, compassionate, understanding and non-judgemental. Each problem was dealt with individually and with just a few sessions with a mixture of Hypnotherapy and BWRT (which is unbelievably amazing!) I feel I am a different person with a much more positive outlook.
Don’t hesitate, as I did, for so long......Take that first step now and you won’t regret it.

BWRT sessions with Samantha
I started going to BWRT sessions with Samantha at the start of the year - and I found the experience to be transformative! Samantha really helped me deal with lots of things that were causing me stress and anxiety in my life, as well dealing with some trauma I had suffered in the previous year from experiencing two miscarriages. What's really wonderful is that we were able to continue our sessions during the covid-19 lockdown online. I cannot recommend Samantha highly enough!

I would highly recommend BWRT
I completed a course of BWRT with Samantha Davey earlier this year, following many counselling and hypnotherapy sessions over the years with other therapists. The talking therapies have been helpful, however, I had reached a point where I didn't want to talk any more! I needed rapid, lasting results that meant I could move on with my life. After a detailed consultation, Samantha and I agreed that BWRT would be helpful. Her assessment was extremely detailed. I felt heard and understood throughout the process. The therapy is like nothing I have ever experienced! It is powerful and brings about significant, rapid change. Following therapy, I feel in control, empowered, energised and no longer haunted by past experiences that have held me back for so long. I would highly recommend BWRT..it has been life changing. Thank you!

Care, attention and patience
I would like to thank you Samantha for your care, attention and patience shown to me over the course of my treatment. Thanks to the techniques used the stress related gastro-intestinal symptoms I tend to experience have markedly reduced and I feel much more balanced. Not only that but I have also come away with techniques which I can continue to use to help keep on top of things. It has been an interesting learning journey.

Life Changing
My experience with Samantha has been literally life changing. I cannot recommend or thank her enough. Unbeknown to me, a trauma, years back, had affected every part of my wellbeing. My confidence was low, anxiety and stress levels were high, and I was struggling with relationships. I also suffered with constant colds, headaches and digestive issues.
Through a course of BWRT and hypnotherapy, amazingly a lot of these issues have significantly decreased. I can think about the initial trauma on a much more untroubled level. The practice of self-hypnosis is definitely an art that isn’t easy, but it’s definitely worth the effort.

Help to overcome anxiety
Samantha put me at ease straight away and explained everything that we were doing, which helped me feel more relaxed. I have had numerous therapies over the past 20 years, but I can honestly say that none of them have been as successful as the hypnotherapy. I would definitely recommend Samantha to anyone who wants help to overcome anxiety. It's given me a fresh outlook on life.

I am free of the eating disorder that ruled my life for so many years.
When I sought Samantha's help with my life long issues with food, I desperately hoped she could help me, but I didn't honestly believe that she would be able to. Thankfully, Samantha believed she could and I decided to put my trust in her. It was the best thing I could have done! The process took longer than it might have, as I didn't always do my homework. Working with Samantha is a team effort!
Despite this, Samantha never once doubted my ability to change and gave her unconditional support throughout the process. In fact an appointment I nearly cancelled because I was so sure I couldn't change, turned out to be the most important session! Food no longer rules my life, I have reduced my weight significantly, but more than any of that I am free of the eating disorder that ruled my life for so many years.
If you want help, but secretly fear that you are beyond help, then call Samantha today. She will have belief in you, even when you have none in yourself, and can show you how to change your life!

I even slept on the way home across the Atlantic!
I went to see Samantha for fear of flying and anxiety leading up to my holiday. I really enjoyed the hypnotherapy sessions and it was helpful having the MP3s to take with me and listen to in between sessions and while travelling. I was able to relax on flights – very happy to have enjoyed my holiday and the flying went well! I even slept on the way home across the Atlantic! Thanks for your help – very much appreciated.

My phobia completely controlled my life.
Before my appointments my phobia (of vomit) completely controlled my life. I wouldn’t go out very often, missed a lot of school due to being worried about catching a bug. But since my hypnotherapy I hardly even think of it, I can go out without having to plan and think about the risks of catching a bug. I’ve been able to continue with my job, which I was close to quitting due to my phobia. I can’t even remember the last time I had a panic attack. Sounds very cliche but it really has changed my life for the better!

Samantha made living worthwhile again.
At 46 and for the third time in my life I suffered from depression that floored me. My GP prescribed anti-depressants but I felt no better after 7 weeks and was resigned to life in the 'darkness'. After 1 session (of BWRT), a mere 60 minutes, I left with a smile so big my face hurt. It was so dramatic, I now refer to Samantha as 'Magic Lady'. As anyone who has suffered from depression knows, help is difficult to ask for and even harder to find without waiting for months. I have previously had counselling years ago. It didn’t work. In the past I also had psychiatric sessions which took many sessions and months off work. I am now completely off anti-depressants. I cannot express my gratitude for the life-line and help I received. Samantha made living worthwhile again.

I was able to completely cut out or reduce most of the pain killers I was taking.
I had suffered with terrible post shingle pain over the last two years, and at the time I first went to see Samantha I was on a lot of different pain killers. Over a few months Samantha taught me how to train my brain to look at pain in a different way. I was able to completely cut out or reduce most of the pain killers I was taking. Samantha also taught me self-hypnosis & I haven't looked back - I feel I have my life back again.

Helping me to continue sleeping soundly.
I thoroughly recommend Samantha as her help has resolved my long-term insomnia at a time I was despairing of sleeping through the night ever again. Her warm, calm professionalism instilled in me a sense of trust: I felt right from the start that Samantha knew exactly what she was doing and had the resources to shift this very deep-seated issue. I appreciated the fact that she is skilled in using hypnotherapy and BWRT - I felt that the combination of these two therapies was very effective in my case. I also liked the fact that Samantha gave me a wide variety of exercises to do at home, giving me the sense that my recovery was partly in my own hands. I now have a range of strategies that are helping me to continue sleeping soundly.

I would recommend Sam to anyone that has any kind of fear or anxiety.
Hypnotherapy has really helped me to change the way I think completely – I no longer worry about someone being sick all the time…it doesn't even cross my mind now. It’s the best thing I've ever done! I now enjoy things like going on holiday a lot more because I don't have any anxiety beforehand - I can just enjoy looking forward to my trips. I would recommend Sam to anyone that has any kind of fear or anxiety.

I don’t binge on junk food any more….I now feel in control. I eat normally and stay a constant weight instead of bingeing/reducing food intake constantly. I’m no longer afraid of change… I try new things willingly and sail through situations that would have knocked me back before. The whole experience has been very positive and empowering.

Thank you for helping me sort things out in my head and making me happy again.
Thank you for helping me sort things out in my head and making me happy again.Before I had hypnotherapy I would get very stressed and angry at silly things. This was having a negative impact on my home life and was destroying my relationship with my partner. I found the sessions really helpful and it worked! No stress…no anger! It’s improved my relationship with my partner, from the point where we were ready to split up to being a normal happy family again. Thank you for helping me sort things out in my head and making me happy again.

The results have been far beyond my expectations.
Hypnotherapy has really worked wonders for me – not only has it completely transformed my outlook on life, I’m now far more relaxed and more confident in everything I do. I feel like a different person! I also sleep much better…and no longer have nightmares, which were quite prolific. I really did not think that at the age of 76 I would ever get rid of these afflictions! The results have been far beyond my expectations.

I am now able to sleep at night.
My initial visit to Samantha was for a 'mind spa' which was a present from my son. This was such a lovely and relaxing session that I booked further appointments to help me with long standing sleep problems (30 years). With Samantha's guidance, assistance, strategies and advice with the added benefit of a CD, I am now able to sleep at night. A big thank you, Samantha.

The world feels a better place after working with Samantha.
I owe a massive thank you to Samantha for helping me deal with some deep rooted negative behaviours I have not been able to shift for a number of years. She has helped me change my thinking patterns and I now have a new positive calmer outlook on life and have finally been able to let go of some of the things that have been holding me back. The world feels a better place after working with Samantha and I now have a good understanding of myself and the person who I want to be and have the tools to do it. I would thoroughly recommend Samantha, she is kind, calm, understanding and professional with a huge amount of knowledge.

My experience with Samantha has been literally life changing. I cannot recommend or thank her enough. Unbeknown to me, a trauma, years back, had affected every part of my wellbeing. My confidence was low, anxiety and stress levels were high, and I was struggling with relationships. I also suffered with constant colds, headaches and digestive issues.
Through a course of BWRT and hypnotherapy, amazingly a lot of these issues have significantly decreased. I can think about the initial trauma on a much more untroubled level. The practice of self-hypnosis is definitely an art that isn’t easy, but it’s definitely worth the effort.

Help to overcome anxiety
Samantha put me at ease straight away and explained everything that we were doing, which helped me feel more relaxed. I have had numerous therapies over the past 20 years, but I can honestly say that none of them have been as successful as the hypnotherapy. I would definitely recommend Samantha to anyone who wants help to overcome anxiety. It's given me a fresh outlook on life.

I am free of the eating disorder that ruled my life for so many years.
When I sought Samantha's help with my life long issues with food, I desperately hoped she could help me, but I didn't honestly believe that she would be able to. Thankfully, Samantha believed she could and I decided to put my trust in her. It was the best thing I could have done! The process took longer than it might have, as I didn't always do my homework. Working with Samantha is a team effort!
Despite this, Samantha never once doubted my ability to change and gave her unconditional support throughout the process. In fact an appointment I nearly cancelled because I was so sure I couldn't change, turned out to be the most important session! Food no longer rules my life, I have reduced my weight significantly, but more than any of that I am free of the eating disorder that ruled my life for so many years.
If you want help, but secretly fear that you are beyond help, then call Samantha today. She will have belief in you, even when you have none in yourself, and can show you how to change your life!

Being the independent person I lost nearly 20 years ago due to panic attacks.
Thank you Samantha for all your help, I now look forward to exploring many things again and being the independent person I lost nearly 20 years ago due to panic attacks. Thank you for everything, I would not hesitate to recommend you.

I even slept on the way home across the Atlantic!
I went to see Samantha for fear of flying and anxiety leading up to my holiday. I really enjoyed the hypnotherapy sessions and it was helpful having the MP3s to take with me and listen to in between sessions and while travelling. I was able to relax on flights – very happy to have enjoyed my holiday and the flying went well! I even slept on the way home across the Atlantic! Thanks for your help – very much appreciated.

My phobia completely controlled my life.
Before my appointments my phobia (of vomit) completely controlled my life. I wouldn’t go out very often, missed a lot of school due to being worried about catching a bug. But since my hypnotherapy I hardly even think of it, I can go out without having to plan and think about the risks of catching a bug. I’ve been able to continue with my job, which I was close to quitting due to my phobia. I can’t even remember the last time I had a panic attack. Sounds very cliche but it really has changed my life for the better!

Samantha made living worthwhile again.
At 46 and for the third time in my life I suffered from depression that floored me. My GP prescribed anti-depressants but I felt no better after 7 weeks and was resigned to life in the 'darkness'. After 1 session (of BWRT), a mere 60 minutes, I left with a smile so big my face hurt. It was so dramatic, I now refer to Samantha as 'Magic Lady'. As anyone who has suffered from depression knows, help is difficult to ask for and even harder to find without waiting for months. I have previously had counselling years ago. It didn’t work. In the past I also had psychiatric sessions which took many sessions and months off work. I am now completely off anti-depressants. I cannot express my gratitude for the life-line and help I received. Samantha made living worthwhile again.

I was able to completely cut out or reduce most of the pain killers I was taking.
I had suffered with terrible post shingle pain over the last two years, and at the time I first went to see Samantha I was on a lot of different pain killers. Over a few months Samantha taught me how to train my brain to look at pain in a different way. I was able to completely cut out or reduce most of the pain killers I was taking. Samantha also taught me self-hypnosis & I haven't looked back - I feel I have my life back again.

Helping me to continue sleeping soundly.
I thoroughly recommend Samantha as her help has resolved my long-term insomnia at a time I was despairing of sleeping through the night ever again. Her warm, calm professionalism instilled in me a sense of trust: I felt right from the start that Samantha knew exactly what she was doing and had the resources to shift this very deep-seated issue. I appreciated the fact that she is skilled in using hypnotherapy and BWRT - I felt that the combination of these two therapies was very effective in my case. I also liked the fact that Samantha gave me a wide variety of exercises to do at home, giving me the sense that my recovery was partly in my own hands. I now have a range of strategies that are helping me to continue sleeping soundly.

I literally feel that I’ve never smoked – amazing!
I never thought after a 30 year 25 or more a day habit that I would ever be able to give up smoking with such ease, but that is what has happened; I literally feel that I’ve never smoked – amazing!

Thank you for your help with my fear of heights.
Thank you for your help with my fear of heights. I’ve just been on the Spanish equivalent of Go Ape. We went across rope bridges, climbing walls, zip wires all about 15 - 20 feet off the ground…I loved every minute! I can't thank you enough.

I would recommend Sam to anyone that has any kind of fear or anxiety.
Hypnotherapy has really helped me to change the way I think completely – I no longer worry about someone being sick all the time…it doesn't even cross my mind now. It’s the best thing I've ever done! I now enjoy things like going on holiday a lot more because I don't have any anxiety beforehand - I can just enjoy looking forward to my trips. I would recommend Sam to anyone that has any kind of fear or anxiety.

I now feel in control.
I don’t binge on junk food any more….I now feel in control. I eat normally and stay a constant weight instead of bingeing/reducing food intake constantly. I’m no longer afraid of change… I try new things willingly and sail through situations that would have knocked me back before. The whole experience has been very positive and empowering.

I have lost quite a lot of weight.
Hypnotherapy has helped change not only my lifestyle, but also my outlook on life as a whole…I have lost quite a lot of weight, and my attitude has also changed considerably for the better. Everything was very relaxing…I always felt safe and never vulnerable.

Thank you for helping me sort things out in my head and making me happy again.
Thank you for helping me sort things out in my head and making me happy again.Before I had hypnotherapy I would get very stressed and angry at silly things. This was having a negative impact on my home life and was destroying my relationship with my partner. I found the sessions really helpful and it worked! No stress…no anger! It’s improved my relationship with my partner, from the point where we were ready to split up to being a normal happy family again. Thank you for helping me sort things out in my head and making me happy again.

The results have been far beyond my expectations.
Hypnotherapy has really worked wonders for me – not only has it completely transformed my outlook on life, I’m now far more relaxed and more confident in everything I do. I feel like a different person! I also sleep much better…and no longer have nightmares, which were quite prolific. I really did not think that at the age of 76 I would ever get rid of these afflictions! The results have been far beyond my expectations.

Samantha has totally turned my life around.
Samantha has totally turned my life around. I came to her not knowing where to start as life was really difficult and I felt in an awful place. She has taught me so much. I now have all the tools I need to carry on and live life in a far more positive way. I really don’t think I have ever felt so good. I am forever grateful.

I am now able to sleep at night.
My initial visit to Samantha was for a 'mind spa' which was a present from my son. This was such a lovely and relaxing session that I booked further appointments to help me with long standing sleep problems (30 years). With Samantha's guidance, assistance, strategies and advice with the added benefit of a CD, I am now able to sleep at night. A big thank you, Samantha.

The world feels a better place after working with Samantha.
I owe a massive thank you to Samantha for helping me deal with some deep rooted negative behaviours I have not been able to shift for a number of years. She has helped me change my thinking patterns and I now have a new positive calmer outlook on life and have finally been able to let go of some of the things that have been holding me back. The world feels a better place after working with Samantha and I now have a good understanding of myself and the person who I want to be and have the tools to do it. I would thoroughly recommend Samantha, she is kind, calm, understanding and professional with a huge amount of knowledge.

She's helped me overcome things I never thought I could.
I now have a completely different outlook on life. I've learnt how to look at the positive side of situations and how to stay calm when I'm under pressure. I would 100% recommend Samantha to anyone. She's helped me overcome things I never thought I could and everyone has noticed how calm and happy I am now.

A phobia of the dentist
Samantha really helped me with a phobia of the dentist. Even doing one of the hypnotherapy sessions via zoom was still really effective. Would highly recommend!
