Hi! I am Samantha Phillis and I am passionate about offering services to meet your individual needs whether that be as a midwife, counsellor, hypnobirthing teacher or rewind practitioner.
I am Welsh and very proud of my Welsh roots but have lived in Stockport, England for 20 years.
I am married to an Englishman and have 3 sons and 2 dogs! I am the co-founder and current President of a local Women's Institute. I am a tap dancer too!
I completed a Psychology degree at the University of Wales, Swansea in 1997, a PG Diploma in Counselling from the University of Chester in 2003 and a Midwifery Degree from the University of Manchester in 2018. I completed Rewind for Birth Trauma in 2019 and KGH Hypnobirthing training in 2022.
I have experience and training in many therapeutic techniques but always aim to meet people where they are, at any given moment and offer support tailored accordingly.
I feel strongly that maternity services need to offer trauma-informed, compassionate care and focus my professional practice as a midwife lecturer around raising awareness of trauma-informed care.
