Client Stories.
Words from those I have supported.
Everyone arrives at Back to You for their own reason. Some come feeling stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected. Others are navigating change, rebuilding confidence, letting go of old patterns or simply wanting to feel more like themselves again.
The words below are shared with permission by people who have experienced different aspects of Back to You™. Their circumstances may be different, but what they found along the way has a familiar thread - space to pause, understand what was happening beneath the surface and begin to see things differently.
Finding happiness again.
Amanda’s Story.
"I’ve tried to think of many words and phrases to describe my sessions with Sam but there is really only one which comes to mind and that is LIFE CHANGING!"
Amanda came to me after months of feeling stuck, exhausted and wondering why nothing seemed to be helping.
Despite trying other forms of support, she still felt disconnected from herself and questioned whether things could ever really change.
What followed was a journey of understanding, healing and rediscovering the woman she thought she'd lost.
-
I have come back from the deepest darkest depths of where I was - to feeling like a new woman – in every way shape and form.
My self-love is better. My relationship is better. My work relationships are better.
I feel I have drive, passion, and enthusiasm. I don’t wake up in the morning angry and frustrated.
I spring out of bed looking forward to the day.
Ultimately, I have found happiness.
After going through six months of normal talk therapy and not understanding why it wasn’t working. Thinking it was me and that I was broken. That there was no solution to my problem. I nearly gave up.
Then someone told me about the type of therapies that Sam did and after the first session, not only did I leave that session with several lightbulb moments, four pages in my journal but I broke down and cried for the first time in sixmonths, which was huge release..
You know when you go through life and you meet these people and just genuinely realise that some of them are angels sent to you from some sort of higher being, well Sam is one of them for sure.
I have no doubt in my mind. If you are having any doubts – literally just have one session and you will see what I mean.
Healing before the next chapter.
Charley's Story.
"It is genuinely a struggle to find the words to explain the momentous impact that Sam has had on my life."
Charley first came to me wanting support as she prepared for IVF treatment.
What unfolded became so much more than preparing for motherhood.
Together we explored grief, self-doubt, relationships and the emotional patterns that had quietly shaped how she experienced life.
As she began reconnecting with herself, something shifted.
She found greater peace with her past, renewed confidence in herself and the belief that a different future really was possible.

Having lost my mum at a very critical age, I felt a lot of resentment and anger that I didn’t know how to overcome. It became clear to me that this was manifesting itself in anxiety and lack of self esteem. I’d had all kinds of therapies over the course of 15 years - with limited success.
Sam’s way of working really resonated immediately, with her techniques helping me to reframe a lot of difficult memories and beliefs that were holding me back.
From our first ever call, I felt comfortable with her. I opened up to her and immediately knew I could trust her implicitly - it was so clear that she had all of her client’s best interests at heart.
Just the level of detail she goes into planning each session is a true testament to her professionalism and heart of gold!

Sam’s way of working really resonated immediately, with her techniques helping me to reframe a lot of difficult memories and beliefs that were holding me back.
Her intuition and warmth is honestly unparalleled. She helped me to forgive myself and move towards my next chapter of becoming a mother.
Sam guided me to trust and believe that it really was possible. Her weekly hypnosis meditations supported me through each stage of my journey and I am now pleased to say I am 5 Months pregnant.
I have no doubt in my mind that this positive result is due to Sam’s influence. My life is infinitely better for having Sam in it.
Anyone considering working with her (for any reason!) - will find they can enjoy the same amazing results - providing they are willing and fully committed to the process.
I can’t thank Sam enough for everything that she has done to support me throughout - what could have been a challenging time.
Instead it was transformative in all the best possible ways!
Finding peace with the past.
Kit's Story.
"I highly recommend working with Sam. Her approach is unique and the outcome is magical."
After years of trying to improve a difficult relationship with her mother, Kit came to me feeling unsure that anything could ever really change.
What began as a journey to heal one relationship gradually became an opportunity to understand herself more deeply.
Together, we explored the beliefs, experiences and patterns that had been quietly influencing many areas of her life.
As those beliefs began to shift, so did her confidence, her perspective and the choices she made about her future.
-
After 20 years and numerous failed attempts in trying to have a harmonious relationship with my mother, I reached out to Sam for her guidance. I was reluctant and somewhat resistant to believe how the dynamic of our relationship could ever change.
But after embarking on Sam’s signature coaching program, listening to her bespoke hypnosis recordings and shared tools and teachings - everything changed.
After the third session, things had already shifted and I am now more than happy to share that my mother and I are now experiencing a very harmonious relationship.
During our subsequent sessions I continued to shift my mindset and my life perspective, and as a result attracted a new career!
I highly recommend Sam for those wanting lasting change. Her approach is unique and the outcome magical.
I am honoured and grateful for the work Sam did with me.
Infinite love and gratitude. Kit.
Discovering what was beneath the surface.
Natasha's Story.
"I have truly found her bespoke hypnosis meditations transformational."
When Natasha first came to me, she wanted support with work stress, and relationships.
Like many women, she thought those were the challenges she needed to solve.
But as we worked together, we uncovered something much deeper.
Together, we explored the beliefs, patterns and experiences that had quietly shaped how she viewed herself, helping her reconnect with who she was and what she truly wanted from life.
That journey ultimately gave Natasha the confidence to make life-changing decisions, creating a future that felt more balanced, purposeful and aligned with who she had become.
-
I was guided to Sam at the time I needed her most in my life.
I had an idea of what I wanted to work on (stress, work and relationships), but I was blown away by the layers we peeled back, and the work we did together to unpack so much more.
My life is now on a more balanced and purposeful journey, and I cannot be more grateful for her guidance.
From the moment she welcomed me into our first session, I knew she would guide me to where I needed to be in life.
She is wonderfully warm, kind, and the gentle push we all need to help us dig deep and become a better person.
Sam has incredible knowledge across many modalities and I have truly found her Bespoke Hypnosis Meditations transformational.
The other techniques we used supported specific areas to work through and unpack what was happening beneath the surface.
Perhaps that is what I loved most about this journey...
Discovering the unknowns about myself.
Thank you so much, Sam.
Feeling seen, heard and held.
Charlie’s Journey.
"From the moment I met her, I felt genuinely seen, heard and held in a way that's incredibly rare."
Charlie came to me during a challenging period and experienced the importance of having a safe, compassionate space to slow down, process emotions and reconnect with herself.
Through our work together, she experienced support, reflection and healing in a space where she felt truly heard and understood.
Her journey is a reminder that sometimes the first step towards change is not having all the answers - it is simply finding a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, explore what you are carrying and begin reconnecting with yourself.
-
I can't recommend Sam Richardson highly enough. From the moment I met her, I felt genuinely seen, heard, and held in a way that's incredibly rare.
She has an extraordinary gift for creating a safe, compassionate space where you can truly let your guard down and begin to heal.
During our session, her calm presence and healing hands brought a sense of comfort and grounding that I can't quite put into words.She held space for my emotions with such kindness, patience, and intuition, allowing me to process things I had been carrying for a long time.
What touched me even more was the care she showed after the session. She continued to check in with me through messages and stayed connected, making me feel supported beyond our time together.That level of genuine compassion and dedication is something you don't come across often.
If you're looking for someone who brings not only skill and professionalism but also deep empathy, warmth, and an incredible healing presence, I wholeheartedly recommend Sam. She truly has a remarkable gift, and I'm so grateful our paths crossed.
A lifetime of tools.
Melissa’s Journey.
"She’s taught me lots of techniques and tricks that, four years later, have actually stuck with me."
Melissa’s journey with me began around a specific personal goal, but as we worked together, the support expanded into different areas of her life.
Over time, she developed tools, practices and a deeper understanding of herself that continued to support her long after our sessions ended.
Her story is a reminder that meaningful change isn’t just about one moment - it’s about creating awareness, confidence and tools that stay with you.

Sam Richardson is a fantastic coach and I count my lucky stars I met her.
She’s taught me lots of techniques and tricks, that I can say, 4 years later, have actually stuck with me and I still use her helpful recordings.
I highly recommend working with Sam. She’s a brilliant person and you’ll be in safe kind hands .
Unlocking confidence and possibility.
Karen’s Journey.
"Sam unlocked all of this, and she did it in such a way that it brought a smile to everyone’s face."
Karen invited me to speak to her community of practitioners around confidence, limiting beliefs and self-belief.
The session explored the beliefs that can quietly hold people back - including money mindset, confidence and imposter syndrome.
Through reflection, coaching and practical tools, the group began recognising their own potential and seeing what was possible when those beliefs started to shift.
-
I can absolutely say with all my heart, that this lady, Sam, is wonderful at what she does.
I recently asked Sam to be a guest speaker for my community of 100+ naturopathic practitioners. They were struggling with money blocks, self limiting beliefs, imposter syndrome, and confidence issues - and it was holding them back from reaching their full potential.Sam unlocked all of this, and she did it in such a way that it brought a smile to everyone’s face.

Sam is an incredibly accomplished coach and healer who has supported me through some of the most challenging times in my life.

Every story is unique. I don’t believe there is one single path to feeling better, more confident or more connected.
