I most often use CBT in my practice.
Hi, I’m Sophie, a Chartered Clinical Psychologist specialising in anxiety, OCD, phobias and trauma. Many of the people I work with are high-functioning on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed by worry, intrusive thoughts, or patterns they can’t seem to break. You might find yourself overthinking, avoiding situations, replaying conversations, or feeling stuck in cycles of fear or self-criticism. Together we can find you some relief, but also explore and understand why this is happening and how to change it.

I'm an integrative therapist; which means I use a mix of theories and therapies including CBT, Attachment Theory (object relations), Psycho-Dynamic and Person-Centred
You may feel depressed, anxious or alone in your problems & fears. Perhaps you struggle with not feeling ‘good enough’ or getting past trauma. I’m here to listen, really understand you/what happened/is still happening, with empathy and no judgement. But I’m also here to help change happen - which can mean challenging & changing unhealthy, unkind views of yourself or just helping reframe the past. The therapy process is often difficult because we feel laid open but I'll be with you & it works! I’ll give you practical tools too to help affect change. With time and patience therapy can help you lead a happier, healthier life.

I am a BABCP accredited CBT therapist, and an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner.
CBT and EMDR have a good evidence base in helping people with trauma related symptoms/PTSD/traumatic bereavement, or where people need to process painful memories from the past. Both are also great for treating anxiety - it is daunting to leave your comfort zone, but the results of less fear/anxiety, and higher confidence in yourself are worth it!

I find CBT a useful basis to first understand your difficulty & how the issue may have developed.
I'm a doctor & therapist with a specialist interest in OCD. I believe that, with the right support & guidance, this is a highly treatable (!) problem. First, we must understand the nature of your intrusive thoughts & why they are causing you such distress. Next, we will explore how these thoughts influence the way you live your life. During this process, we’ll identify what is causing & maintaining your OCD &, most importantly, what needs to change to overcome it. In OCD, the problem is not an intellectual one. The issue lies at a deeper, more emotional level. Here, actions speak louder than words. We much change how you’re living.

Drawing from psychodynamic, person centred, CBT and Transactional analysis approaches allows me to tailor our work, explore underlying patterns, and support meaningful, sustainable change at a pace that feels right for you.
Most of the people I see are women navigating a significant change or a moment they didn't see coming. Anxiety, burnout, grief, low confidence, life transitions that nobody quite prepared them for. Divorce. A health scare. Retirement. The slow creep of stress that's quietly taken over.
I work with anxiety, trauma, both recent and long-held. With relationship difficulties, low self-worth and the quiet, persistent critic that lives inside some of us. With habits and patterns that once helped but no longer do.
My job is simply to help you think and see more clearly, feel less alone, and find a way forward that's actually yours.

Is brain fog, overwhelm or burnout making it hard for you to function at work or in life?
Are you having mood swings, anxiety, memory lapses, trouble focusing or feel you're being rejected? The change can be so rapid and severe that many of my clients say they are terrified that they're going mad or getting dementia. Most of my clients are high‑achieving women in midlife and the impact can be huge for them personally and professionally. It impacts relationships, families, and even makes them pull back from successful careers. Sometimes pregnancy and perimenopause result in ADHD & Autistic traits emerging. It's overwhelming.

We all know the routine: "How are you?" "I'm fine, thanks" – the standard response, hiding a deeper truth. Beneath the brave face, you might be feeling less connected to loved ones, friends, or even yourself. Sometimes anxious, as though in a crowded room, yet completely alone. Perhaps the energy needed to connect has disappeared, leaving you feeling less able to engage? Or, maybe you feel a sensation of emptiness or loss? Talking openly and honestly about your true feelings is always a daunting first step, but it's also the most important one towards feeling better.

Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) Counsellors
How does cognitive behavioural therapy work?
Cognitive behavioural therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophising or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioural therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioural therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioural therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioural therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioural therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
