Sophie Perring

I am a BACP registered, qualified, Person-Centred Counsellor, and currently provide telephone, and online counselling. I also see clients face to face in a relaxed, confidential space, near public transport. I am an experienced counsellor for addictions & substance misuse, helping clients to facilitate change in their lifestyles to address & alter destructive patterns and behaviours. Together, we look at relapse prevention, triggers and managing stressful situations to build strength and resilience to empower clients. 

I work remotely with forensic step-down clients within  the criminal justice system and help support clients dealing with complex personality disorders. Substance misuse and managing their long term situation. Helping clients to find a way to manage their situation and self soothe techniques. 

I also work with survivors of suicide to be able to take time to reflect on where they are now and what had led them to seek to end their lives.  

I work with EAP clients using short term focussed sessions, helping clients work through particular issues currently troubling them.  We work together to help find a solution, usually to a particular problem. 

I am non-judgemental, genuine and empathic, I provide a safe, confidential space for clients to explore their issues. I work with those suffering from addictions including drug and alcohol issues, sexual abuse, bereavement, and suicidal ideation. I also work with anxiety, depression and many other issues. I work with clients to find a path to greater happiness and contentment. 

I am available for phone, online sessions and face to face following  the government guidelines.  

Please contact me for a free 15 minute initial consultation. From there  we can arrange to talk or meet and you decide if we can work together.  I offer low cost counselling for those struggling financially.
