About Sophie
Sophie Grimmett is a Humanistic therapist who focuses on helping people feel heard and understood. She combines a person-centred outlook with practical tools, self-care and clear information to help people move forward. Sophie holds a Master’s degree, Level 7, from the University of Wales and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She has five years of professional experience working in local counselling services and the National Health Service.
Background and approach
Sophie currently works as a Psychological Therapist within the NHS and has developed broad experience across common mental health difficulties. Her background gives her practical knowledge of how different problems can affect day-to-day life. Sophie’s starting point is a Humanistic approach that values the person’s own experience.
She blends that with a pluralistic mindset, bringing in tools and psychoeducation that fit each person’s situation. Sessions tend to be conversational and focused on what the person wants to change. In the room she aims to build an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through.
She also emphasises simple self-care strategies and learning about conditions when that helps people cope better. People who reach out are often looking for help with stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship issues, trauma, grief or questions about identity and sexuality. Sophie supports people through life changes, coping challenges, and practical steps towards improved wellbeing.

Online support
She also works pluralistically by bringing in practical tools and psychoeducation when these are helpful. That can include simple self-care routines, strategies for managing strong emotions, and short exercises to try between sessions. These techniques aim to make changes feel manageable and relevant to everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to the person’s goals, needs and preferences. This collaborative process helps pick techniques that suit temperament, lifestyle and what someone wants to achieve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break. Live chat and text messaging can suit people who prefer writing or want shorter, more frequent check-ins. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
