Hi, I’m Sophie. 

Thanks for visiting my profile.

Please note, I am currently working solely online, seeing clients via Google Meet or WhatsApp Video.  Working online has many benefits, giving you the opportunity to access therapy in the comfort of your own home, as well as being able to access the right therapist for you, regardless of your location.  My online practice means that I can stay at home with my two miniature dachshunds (which can be a good or bad thing, depending on their attitude!).

I work with clients experiencing a range of issues such as anxiety and depression, self-esteem issues, eating disorders, relationship difficulties and identity exploration, among others.  Neurodivergence (autism, ADHD, dyslexia & more) is my main area of expertise, a topic I feel passionate about.

I have ADHD myself and therefore understand how difficult it can be to be neurodivergent and live in a neurotypical world.  I have worked with many neurodivergent clients to work through the emotional impact as well as supporting them to manage productivity, organisation and social aspects.  Though I cannot diagnose, I have knowledge of the UK ADHD and ASD diagnosis pathways and have helped a number of clients prepare for their assessments.  I work with diagnosed neurodivergent clients as well as self-diagnosed and clients that wish to explore this possibility, whether they choose to seek diagnosis or not.

You can expect sessions with me to be fairly goal-focused and I see this as working with purpose.  I regularly review with clients to reflect on how we are working towards their goals, noticing any positive change or acknowledging if we need to shift direction, so you can be assured that you are getting the best out of therapy.

Whatever your reason for considering therapy, it is your journey, so I will be led by you.  I believe that you are the expert of your own life and having the space to talk through difficulties with support and empathy can relieve the stress.  I don’t judge; we’re all human with our own struggles and stresses.

I understand the importance of finding the right therapist, and so I offer a free introductory call.  You are welcome to email me to discuss this.  I'm also available via text or WhatsApp if it's more comfortable for you.

I wish you luck on your journey and hope to hear from you soon.
