About Sonia

Sonia Roberts is a counsellor who uses a calm, patient style to help people navigate stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns. She brings three years of professional counselling experience in the United Kingdom and holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She works in a straightforward way, offering time to talk and to make sense of difficult feelings.

Sessions focus on what matters most to the client, whether that is building confidence, managing low mood, or handling family conflict.

Background and approach

Sonia aims to create a steady space where people can reflect and plan small, realistic steps forward. Before moving into counselling she spent many years in social care, and that background informs a practical, down-to-earth approach.

She draws on three approaches: client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural tools to spot and change unhelpful thinking, and psychodynamic ideas to look at deeper patterns that repeat over time. Sonia says her own life challenges deepened her understanding of struggle and recovery. That experience helps her stay empathic while keeping work focused on the client’s goals.

She is known for being steady, non-judgemental and approachable. Sessions are offered in English and can be done online using video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging. Sonia supports international clients and works with people who want help with issues such as abandonment, attachment, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, communication problems, grief and life purpose.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Sonia draws on client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy to shape online work. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the client’s pace to help them feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will talk about what matters most, try a few ways of working, and agree what feels most helpful based on goals and preferences. This collaborative method means approaches may shift as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls suit in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low, live chat can provide a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help fit therapy around work, travel or family life and make regular contact easier for people with busy schedules.
