Sophie adopts an integrative and collaborative approach to counselling and psychotherapy, drawing on different psychotherapeutic modalities to tailor therapy to each client’s needs.

Grounded in the humanistic tradition in psychotherapy, she sees her clients as “experts” on their own experience and as individuals with inherent worth, free will, and inner capacities for growth. The mind-body connection informs her approach, and she may use body-oriented interventions. Since working at Streatham Osteopaths, she has developed an interest in working with chronic physical discomfort or pain without an identified bio/medical cause.

Sophie welcomes adults from all social, ethnic, cultural and spiritual backgrounds, and offers sessions in person and online, in English or French.

She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, has qualifications in integrative counselling and psychotherapy (PGDip/MA), Internal Family Systems therapy (Levels 1 & 2), and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (Level 1).
