Hi, I'm Sophie, and I am a CBT and EMDR therapist. I work with people feeling low, anxious and stuck to recognise what is holding you back and empower you to move towards the future you want. You may feel you're held back by lack of confidence at work or in relationships, losing a sense of joy or purpose in life, being up all hours worrying or being in a constant battle with your body and food. Our problems can present in so many different ways and I am here to help untangle and make sense of the 'why' things are the way they are, so together we can figure out the 'how' to move on.
I have over a decade of experience helping people with depression, anxiety, trauma and eating disorders. Supporting people to overcome disordered eating is my specialist area. I continue to work as a senior therapist in the NHS at the Maudsley Eating Disorders Service alongside my private practice.
Thank you to a previous client for these words: "I honestly couldn’t recommend Sophie highly enough. I was so stuck... but it felt like she just held my hand and carefully walked me out of it". If you would like a chat with me to about working together, do reach out for a free no-obligation discovery call.

I have found that using a blended approach of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing can be incredibly powerful in helping people resolve all sorts of problems. There is no such thing as a one size fits all in therapy, and I work collaboratively with my clients to understand & adapt our approach to align best with their hopes, goals and values.
