Meet Sophie
Counsellor
Hi, I'm Sophie - thank you for taking a look at my page.
I'm a qualified counsellor, living and working in Exeter and surrounding East Devon areas. I work individually with clients, face-to-face and online, both short and longer term work.
I am an Integrative Counsellor, which means that I am trained in various different theories, and will use different approaches depending on the client. To me, the most important thing is that we 'click' and are able to trust eachother. I also love to laugh and find the use of humour can be really helpful in the counselling room.
I specialise in working with PTSD and trauma, and get a huge sense of satisfaction out of helping people more on in their lives.
I have a Psychology Degree and Counselling Diploma, and work with the following problems:
Anxiety
Bereavement
Depression
Domestic Violence
Generally feeling 'low' or 'flat'
Lack of confidence or self-esteem
Life Transitions

Relationship Issues
Self-harm
