About Sophie
Sophie Harding is a counsellor with seven years' experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and works from an integrative perspective, adapting her approach to each person's needs. Sophie aims to create a respectful, non-judgemental space where someone can begin to talk about what feels overwhelming.
Asking for help is hard and she recognises that first step as important. She helps people name what is getting in the way of everyday life and then takes a practical, paced approach to working through those issues.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on the concerns that matter now, whether that is grief, self-harm thoughts, problems at work, or feeling empty and disconnected. Sophie pays attention to patterns that repeat and to the small choices someone can make to feel steadier. People often come for help with caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, or the emotional fallout from separation and divorce.
She also supports those struggling with jealousy, seasonal lows, social anxiety, and problems in communication. Sophie listens closely and uses what a person shares to guide helpful next steps. Her style is straightforward and compassionate.
Sophie encourages practical experiments between sessions and gentle reflection during them. She works collaboratively, checking in about what is useful and adjusting the pace when needed. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts people located outside the United Kingdom.
Therapy is delivered online using a choice of formats so people can pick what fits their life.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sophie will discuss options, try methods that match a person's goals, and check in regularly to see what is working. Together they shape the plan so it fits the individual's needs, preferences and pace.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls create a face-to-face feel for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows brief check-ins during a busy day, and text-based messaging works for ongoing reflection or for people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or health challenges while still working with registered or accredited professionals and counsellors.
