HELLO I'm Sophie,

I'm here to Help.

I have 20 years Counselling Experience & I am a qualified Clinical Supervisor. 

Are you struggling in your own headspace? Want to talk things over and learn how to get in a better place?

Therapy works in many ways:

In essence talking to someone trained to listen will help you get to know yourself more deeply and by becoming more self aware it will make it easier to identify areas which are causing you distress and help find solutions to move forward to a Happier You!

Most importantly I pride myself on being a 'Real' person - meaning therapy with me feels like a real conversation, we are in this together and I will talk as well as listen!

I hope I steer clear of the cliche Therapist remarks like "and how does that make you feel?" Therapy should feel like talking to a trusted friend but with the bonus that I am completely impartial, confidential and trained to listen and help find solutions right for you - led by you.

Zoom Or telephone Sessions.

Before your first session I will send out details on what to expect, and a pre counselling form to complete to give me an overview of what you are seeking therapy for. This is an opportunity for you to start to think about your aims for counselling and help you reflect on your current state of mind.

Our first session we will get to know each other and you'll get a feel for me and therapy. People often find the first session nerve racking. I try to make it as easy as it can be. I can be quite chatty and wont make you talk about anything you're not ready or don't feel is relevant.

But even on the first session we will get stuck in and get to work on getting you in a better place :0)
