About Sophie
Sophie Sinclair-Brown offers person-centred therapy that centres on respectful, non-directive conversation. She is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and uses a warm, accepting approach to help people talk through difficult feelings. Sophie has three years of clinical experience and has supported people through grief after losing a spouse or parent.
She has also worked with people affected by sexual and domestic abuse and with those coping with addiction.
Background and approach
Her practice includes helping with mood difficulties such as depression and anxiety, and with longer-term emotional struggles including personality-related problems and bipolar experience. Sophie aims to meet people where they are and follow their lead in sessions. As a queer-identifying counsellor (lesbian, she/her), Sophie tries to create an affirming space for LGBTQ+ people.
She invites clients to explore topics like self-esteem, intimacy, sexuality and relationship concerns at their own pace. Person-centred therapy focuses on the client’s experience and supports people to make their own choices about change. Sophie will listen, reflect and hold the conversation without setting an agenda, while checking in about whether the approach feels helpful.
Before your first session she is willing to talk through any questions about how person-centred work might fit your needs. To start therapy, use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How Sophie works online
Person-centred work is about the relationship between counsellor and client. Sophie will collaborate with each person to decide how to proceed, and will check in about whether the approach feels helpful. Finding the right way of working is part of therapy and will be shaped by your goals and preferences.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare or travel, and it can reduce the time needed to attend appointments. It also allows sessions to continue when life circumstances change, and can make it simpler to maintain regular check-ins while you work toward your goals.
