Welcome
Welcome to The Room – Psy an evolving, breathing, and alive online space dedicated to everything psychology, health, and well-being. Here, curiosity meets critical thought, and the mysterious meets the measurable.
The Room – Psy is more than just a website — it’s a dynamic platform where passionate minds explore the known, the unknown, the controversial, and the profoundly human. From the latest scientific research to philosophical debates, from mental health stigma to esoteric spirituality, we bring you unique voices and fresh perspectives to answer the questions that keep us up at night.
What We Are
We are an interactive hub for sharing ideas, sparking debate, and inspiring positive change. Our content spans across social sciences — psychology and society, mental health and disorder, sex and identities, criminology, research methods, and therapeutic practice — to provide you with a rich and nuanced psychological and philosophical understanding of what shapes the human experience.
Whether you’re diving deep into the causes and treatments of mental disorders, exploring the shadows of psychopathology, or challenging societal stigmas, The Room – Psy offers a compassionate, evidence-informed space to learn and grow.
The Green Space
An extension of ‘The Room – Psy’ - the garden leading off from the “therapist’s office”, if you will. The Green Space offers you a broader assortment of content, fresh and varied for you to pick through like blossoms on branches. Here you can explore topics outside of psychology and mental health and instead dive into the metaphysical, spiritual and esoteric aspects of the body and mind. The choice topics you can find here relate to more natural pleasures and philosophies such as the conceptualisation and understanding of Gaia and climate change, the powers of the universe, well-being, mindfulness, spirituality, health and diet, personal development, the law of attraction, manifestation, 30 Day Challenges and more.
The Green Space is a place to nourish your soul and expand your horizons — a refreshing complement to the analytical heart of The Room - Psy.

About Samantha Newport
Founder of The Room – Psy | Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor | Writer/Researcher
I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor and the Founder of The Room – Psy, a pioneering mental health platform designed to offer a compassionate, stigma-free “third space” for healing and personal growth. Grounded in a deep understanding of emotional complexity and human imperfection, my work is driven by a commitment to authentic connection and holistic well-being.
My journey into psychotherapy emerged from a profound desire to create a space that honours the messy, non-linear realities of mental health—one that moves beyond rigid frameworks and embraces vulnerability, self-compassion, and acceptance. My approach blends evidence-based psychological principles with a nurturing, person-centred philosophy that empowers clients to reclaim their voice and cultivate resilience.
At The Room – Psy, I work to curate a dynamic blend of voices, therapeutic services (TBA), psychoeducational resources, and community dialogue, fostering an environment where individuals can explore mental health without judgment or stigma. This “third space” is a sanctuary for those who seek balance beyond polarised narratives—where healing is rooted in empathy, nuance, and holistic care.
Driven by my belief in the power of connection and the importance of honouring one’s authentic self, I continue to evolve The Room – Psy as a beacon of hope, transformation, and inclusive mental health advocacy.
