About Sophie
Sophie Sinclair-Brown is a person-centred counsellor who prioritises an open, non-directive approach. She is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and works from a person-led perspective. Sophie aims to make sessions welcoming and affirming for LGBT clients and anyone feeling overwhelmed by life changes.
Sophie has three years of clinical experience supporting people through bereavement and difficult relationship experiences. She has worked with survivors of sexual and domestic abuse and with people managing addictions or long-term mood difficulties.
Background and approach
Her practice also covers common concerns such as anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and low mood. In sessions Sophie listens closely to how clients describe their experience and follows what matters to them. Person-Centred Therapy focuses on the client’s perspective rather than a therapist-led agenda.
That style suits people who want space to explore feelings and make their own sense of things. Some people come wanting to talk about parenting, communication problems, intimacy or sexuality. Others come with questions about purpose, guilt, shame or social anxiety.
Sophie aims to hold a steady, non-judgemental space while people work through these issues at their own pace. She is used to responding when a person feels stuck or unsure where to begin, and she encourages small steps that reflect each person’s priorities. Sophie is based in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.

Person-centred care and online options
Person-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely to your experience and following what you want to explore. The therapist aims to reflect your feelings, ask gentle questions and give you space to make sense of things. This approach can help with issues like low self-esteem, grief, stress, relationship concerns and parenting questions.That humanistic, client-led method places emphasis on your agency. Sophie works collaboratively to find the best way forward and will discuss how Person-Centred Therapy might fit your goals. If you want a different focus or additional tools, she will talk it through and adapt the plan together with you.
Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when you prefer being on camera. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a quieter check-in. Live chat and text-based messages can suit shorter updates, flexible check-ins or people who find typing easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around parenting schedules, work or other commitments while staying connected to a registered professional.
