About Sophie
Sophie Howe is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and difficulties like ADHD and issues with concentration and motivation. She aims to make the first step feel less daunting and offers calm, straightforward support for those seeking more balance and confidence in daily life.
She keeps sessions warm and non-judgemental. Sophie encourages people to talk about what matters to them and helps them make small, practical changes that feel achievable. Conversations focus on real-life goals such as sleeping better, managing worry, improving self-esteem, or coping with life transitions.
Her background includes four years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. Sophie draws on a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs, including acceptance-based strategies and gentle, evidence-informed techniques.
In sessions she listens for patterns that cause repeated distress and works with clients to try different ways of responding. This can mean learning simple tools to manage anxious thoughts, exploring attachment and relationship patterns, or developing clearer goals for change. Sophie keeps therapy practical and collaborative, checking in about what is and isn’t working.
She also has experience supporting people with grief, trauma, addiction-related challenges, body image concerns and issues connected to adoption and foster care. If you are wondering whether this is a good fit, Sophie encourages an initial conversation to see how to proceed together.
How Sophie uses different therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without being led by them and to focus on actions that match their values. It can help when worry or low mood gets in the way of daily life.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in how people relate to others and how early experiences shape current responses. It is useful for understanding relationship difficulties, intimacy issues and some kinds of grief or abandonment concerns.
Client-Centred Therapy centres on the person’s own experience. The therapist offers empathic listening and reflection, helping the client find their own insights and directions for change.
Finding the right approach is something to explore together. Sophie will discuss what matters to the person, try methods that suit their goals, and adapt based on what helps. The choice of method is collaborative and can change over time as needs evolve.
Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and to keep sessions consistent during life changes. It can reduce travel time and let people join from a quieter room, or choose shorter check-ins when needed. Please confirm the specific session options available before booking so you know how sessions will be arranged.
