About Sophie
Sophie Sinclair-Brown is a counsellor who practises Person-Centred Therapy. She is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sophie describes her work as creating a warm, accepting space where people can explore what matters to them at their own pace.
She focuses on relationship and identity concerns, including LGBT issues, intimacy, and communication problems. Sophie also helps people facing anxiety, depression, mood disorders and coping with major life changes.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with grief, addiction, eating concerns and survivors of sexual and domestic abuse. Sessions are non-directive and aimed at understanding the person's experience from their point of view. Sophie listens without judgement and supports people to find their own direction rather than offering advice.
That approach can feel different to more structured therapies, and it may take a few sessions to settle into the rhythm of talking things through. Sophie has three years' experience working in the United Kingdom and holds a Master's degree in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling and Psychotherapy. Her BACP membership is listed as BACP.
She welcomes people who want a respectful, person-focused way of working. Before booking, Sophie recommends a short conversation to check the fit. She can talk through what person-centred work will look like and help decide whether this approach meets the person's needs.

Person-Centred care and online sessions
Sophie uses Person-Centred Therapy, an approach that prioritises a warm, accepting relationship. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and supports people to make sense of their feelings. This style is often helpful for issues such as anxiety, depression, identity and relationship concerns where understanding personal experience is the goal.Person-Centred work is non-directive, which means Sophie follows the client's lead rather than setting the agenda. Together they will decide how to use online sessions and whether the person-centred way feels right. Finding the best approach is a collaborative process and Sophie will discuss options with the client at the start.
The practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions around work or family commitments and reducing travel time. If you are considering online work, please confirm the specific session options before booking so you know how Sophie currently conducts sessions. Many people find that online appointments make it easier to keep therapy in a regular routine and to check in during times of change.
