About me and my therapy practice
I am a fully qualified and BACP registered integrative transpersonal psychotherapist. I like to think I’m not your typical psychotherapist - for one, I am fully aware of the trappings of modern living. Having had a career in the media and running my own startup for many years, I feel these rich experiences (along with the many hiccups and dead ends along the way) have contributed to making me a more compassionate, relatable and realistic therapist. What you won’t find is an inactive therapist who says nothing! The therapeutic relationship is at the heart of the work, and I hope you will find in me a compassionate, warm and straight-talking human being. My approach couples deep inner psychological work with helping you to find a practical way forward. Life requires the clear balance of power (outer masculine energy) and intelligence (inner feminine energy), neither of which are about gender, of course. No two clients are ever the same - I will meet you where you are at. As an integrative therapist with 6+ years of training behind me, I pull on a variety of different tools, such as working with attachment style, setting behavioural experiments, using visualisation, doing Inner Child work, practising mindfulness, body and breath work and accessing the creative imagination, plus many more. Transpersonal integrative therapy covers all entry points into the psyche and accounts for the creative nature of our wounding, which enables a new Self to emerge. I truly believe we can turn our murky stuff into gold.
Practice description

Some testimonials:
"Sophie balances warmth, sensitivity and empathy with honesty, and has an ability to challenge and question in a way that stimulates thought and self reflection without ever coming across as abrasive or judgemental. Would recommend her without hesitation.” Testimonial by R.C.
"She creates a haven for me once a week where I can safely explore everything and anything. She's opened my eyes to new ways of thinking, and is genuinely so good at what she does. Above all, she cares deeply and you can tell. I'm so grateful to Sophie for taking me this far and opening my eyes to the power of self-acceptance, and helping me realise that there is a lot of hope for the future.” Testimonial by K.T.
"Sophie has really changed my life." Testimonial by A.F.
