Sam McSorley

Sam McSorley is a naturopath and medical herbalist with over 25 years of clinical experience, offering something rarely found in a single practitioner: a genuine integration of naturopathic medicine and psychodynamic-informed therapeutic practice. Sam works with stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, burnout, and emotional dysregulation. Not as isolated symptoms, but as expressions of a whole person whose physiology, relational history, and emotional landscape are inseparable. Where many approaches treat the body or the mind, Sam holds both in the same clinical conversation. Alongside naturopathy and herbal medicine, Sam draws on three psychodynamic frameworks in her work: the Conversational Model, which centres the therapeutic relationship as the foundation of healing; Internal Family Systems (IFS), which works with the internal protective patterns that drive chronic emotional and physical symptoms; and Hakomi Somatic Therapy, which uses the body's own wisdom as a primary clinical text. This integrated approach is further supported by advanced functional diagnostics including DNA wellness analysis, microbiome testing, and comprehensive lab interpretation, ensuring that the biochemical and the relational are always considered together.
