About Sophie

Sophie Howe is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and struggles with focus. She works with clients on self-esteem, motivation and confidence. Sophie aims to make early steps feel manageable and will support people who want a clearer way forward.

Sophie draws on practical talking approaches to help people name what matters and try small changes. She creates an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgement.

Background and approach

Sessions are intended to be straightforward and down to earth rather than full of jargon. She uses tools from Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how feelings and connection shape problems. She also works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and take values-based action.

Sophie has four years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That background informs a calm and reflective approach during sessions. She welcomes conversations about a wide range of life issues, including trauma, grief, addictions and career stress.

People often come for help with relationships, intimacy, parenting pressures, sleeping and eating concerns, or coping with big life changes. Sophie also supports those managing ADHD-related concentration challenges and the stresses of caregiving or long-term illness. Her aim is to work collaboratively so each person can find realistic steps to feel steadier, clearer and more able to handle day-to-day demands.

Online support

How Sophie brings emotion-focused and practical approaches online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on how feelings shape behaviour and relationships, helping people notice patterns and create new ways of connecting with themselves and others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings, clarify what matters to them, and take small values-based steps despite discomfort. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sophie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together choose which methods to try. That collaborative process helps tailor the work so sessions feel relevant and practical rather than one-size-fits-all.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives or limited travel options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful, while phone sessions suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, keeping a steady contact rhythm, or fitting support into a work break. These options make it easier to maintain continuity and try different formats as needs change.
