About Sophia

Sophia Monerville is a counsellor with nine years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, which is shown as BACP, and combines several therapeutic ideas to meet each person’s needs. She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what feels hard and begin to make changes that matter to them.

Sophia draws on client-centred ways of working that keep the person’s experience central. She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to help spot unhelpful thinking and to try practical changes. Her background in existential and psychodynamic approaches means she pays attention to life meaning and patterns that repeat over time.

In sessions she listens for how past events shape current relationships and emotional reactions. Sophia also uses somatic ideas to notice how feelings show up in the body and to offer simple ways to work with that. Examples of concerns she supports include anxiety, stress, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, addictions and ADHD.

People come to explore parenting stress, career decisions, body image or recovery from trauma and abuse. She also helps those coping with chronic illness, caregiver strain, or challenges around sexual expression such as BDSM and kink. Sophia offers coaching-style support for practical life changes alongside therapeutic work.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy keeps the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. It focuses on empathic listening and helping people find their own solutions for relationship, identity or life-change concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, improve sleep or shift mood. Existential Therapy helps people explore life meaning, choices and values when facing big changes or uncertainty.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sophia will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will try different ways of working to see what fits. That collaborative process guides which methods are used week to week rather than a fixed plan from the start.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how she runs appointments. Many people find online work easier for fitting therapy into a busy routine, managing short check-ins between commitments, or reducing travel time. Online sessions can also make it simpler to maintain continuity when life changes, while the therapist and client discuss what works best for their goals and circumstances.
