Hello and welcome. I'm a qualified counsellor that is passionate about mental health and well-being and I'm committed to making a difference to my clients' lives. Suffering from emotional or psychological difficulties can feel overwhelming and is often debilitating. Life can be complicated and cruel and we can often feel hopeless, confused and out of control. There are times when life can just become too much and the smallest things can get to you. I understand the prospect of counselling can seem daunting, however talking to a counsellor is the first step towards change. You don't have to struggle alone.

Hello and welcome, I'm Sophie. I work with adults and young people experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, and the challenges of neurodivergence, including ADHD and autism. If you feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, struggling with low self-esteem, or worn down from coping alone, therapy can offer a supportive space to slow things down, make sense of your experiences, and feel understood. You may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, depression, loneliness, grief, relationship difficulties, or feeling stuck in patterns that are hard to understand. Whatever brings you to therapy, you don't have to face it alone.

I work with adults of all ages, and am an accredited member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. I provide a calm, safe space to talk things through without fear of judgement, and together we form a therapy plan to help you experience life the way you want to.

I am a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist and a Doctor of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy candidate at the University of Exeter. With over 25 years of clinical experience in the NHS (CAMHS) and private practice, I offer a sophisticated, relational approach to healing. My work is grounded in the belief that our present struggles—be they anxiety or relationship patterns—are often shaped by unconscious scripts. By decoding these deeper patterns, I help you find a sense of agency and lasting change. While my background includes social work and art therapy, my focus remains on the transformative power of the psychoanalytic relationship.

Sometimes life can present difficult challenges. When that happens it's easy to feel confused, lonely, stuck and perhaps even judged. I can help you by providing a space for realisation, processing trauma and finding greater inner peace and freedom to live the life you wish for. I believe that the most important relationship we have is with ourselves. Having self compassion and being at peace with one’s self can be difficult to practice. I want to bring you hope and support you in becoming your own best friend.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed and just don't know where to turn? Maybe you don't like yourself very much or feel that you don't have anything to offer. Would you like to be able to feel better about your decisions rather than always questioning yourself? Being able to talk to someone about how you're feeling can be a relief and can start to unlock what's going on inside to bring about change.

As a warm-hearted, grounded person I bring authenticity to all my therapeutic work. Fundamental to my approach as a therapist is to offer a relationship of equality. Instead of advising you or telling you what to do I create a non-judgmental and trustworthy space to help you explore difficult thoughts, feelings and behaviours. I place emphasis on building a therapeutic relationship, believing it facilitates change to occur and offering myself as a companion accompanying you on your journey, at your own pace, to help you gain clarity and perspective.

I am an experienced, Relate trained, counsellor specialising in relationships, depression and anxiety. Maybe you have tried hard to improve things but so far nothing much has changed. My role would be to help you identify what needs to change and to give you techniques and insights to help implement those changes. Relationships need to adapt and change over time and this can be difficult. Problems are often caused by poor communication and we can look at techniques to enable you to communicate in a way that avoids conflict and promotes a greater understanding of each other.

Divorce Counsellors
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
