My approach is integrative, drawing from three main modalities: Person- Centred Therapy, Transactional Analysis and Gestalt.
There can be times in our life when our thoughts, feelings or behaviour may feel overwhelming or distressing. You may be struggling with difficult emotions about yourself, your relationships, or how you experience the world. I offer a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space where we can explore what has brought you to counselling and how we can work together towards meaningful change. I am committed to providing a welcoming and affirming space for people from diverse backgrounds and identities and I am mindful how diversity and difference can have an impact on our lived experiences.

Contacting a counsellor can be a daunting experience. They need to be qualified, accredited and ethical, but also someone you feel comfortable enough to open up to. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation so you can see if I am the right person for you. I have nearly 15 years of experience working with people of all ages and with all range of issues - anxiety, depression, self-defeating behaviours, trauma & PTSD to name a few. I'm a psychotherapist, hypnotherapist, EMDR practitioner and IFS (Internal Family Systems) trained therapist, so specialise in trauma. Change is possible, it all starts with the first step.

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.

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.

If you are reading this there is a chance that you (or someone you know) may be experiencing some emotional difficulties. In my personal experience, counselling and psychotherapy can help with a wide range of problems related to life and living. Many of us don't know why we feel unhappy, lacking in confidence or generally anxious. Some experience anxiety in relation to situations where other people seem to cope without a problem. Sitting down with a trained therapist can help alleviate distress as well as uncover the self-defeating patterns we may have stumbled into as a consequence of life's events.

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.

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'm trained in Transactional Analysis which gets to the heart of how we communicate.
Anxiety, depression, stress, conflict. We all hear these words but when they are your story it's much more than words, it's your life. If you invest in yourself you can learn to stop being controlled, feel you're making your own decisions and improve your relationship, career or state of mind. My clients show courage in reflecting on their lives and I've yet to work with any individual or couple who have regretted taking this step. Now we're in this extreme new way of living we may need to address issues we've previously avoided. This could be that opportunity.

You may be feeling stuck - you’ve tried to stop using porn or another damaging sexual behaviour but your will power keeps failing and you find yourself going in circles, of secrecy, shame & hopelessness. The behaviours now seem like its taken the wheel and firmly in the driving seat of your life. You may even be wondering how things ever got this far. If you’re in a relationship, it’s probably suffering. Even if no one else knows, you do and what may have started as a bit of fun is now causing you pain. There is hope. Many of our wounds are formed in relationships, so it makes sense that healing should also come through one.

I use the humanistic approaches of Gestalt, Person-Centred, and Transactional Analysis to listen deeply, attune to your experience, and meet you in your world.
Together, we can start to metabolise the suffering and make meaning from the mess. I invite you to explore your truth, your questions, and meet the parts of yourself you might’ve been aching to find or finding hard to be with. Clients who have told me CBT “only took them so far” found further progression in a relational approach such as mine.

Going to therapy (sometimes known as counselling or psychotherapy) can often feel like a daunting task and finding the courage to take those initial steps can be difficult. You may already feel overwhelmed whilst searching for a therapist and have many questions, such as what do the different approaches and qualifications mean, who is experienced enough and who could help me the best? Regardless of which approach is used, one thing we do know is that the most important factor in creating positive client outcomes is the quality of the relationship between the therapist and client.

Life can throw all kinds of events, expected or unexpected, at us. We experience those changes with a full range of emotions and sometimes it’s difficult to understand and acknowledge these feelings. We can choose to ignore them and gradually they start to affect the way we go about our daily lives. Others may notice the changes that we struggle to accept......With the right conditions and support you have the ability to harness your inner energy to regenerate and find new ways to grow and thrive once again. I offer you the space to explore, walking alongside you, supporting you safely on that journey.
