Sophie Robinson-Matthews, BACP

About Sophie

Sophie Robinson-Matthews offers counselling for a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, parenting strain, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and relationship difficulties. She presents herself as warm and encouraging and aims to help people find more balance, hope and practical coping strategies in daily life.

Sophie draws on a person-centred approach at the core of her work, which means she focuses on treating people with acceptance and respect.

Background and approach

She combines that with other methods so each session fits the person rather than forcing one technique on everyone. Her practice is integrative. Sophie uses ideas from cognitive behavioural work, acceptance and commitment approaches, attachment-focused thinking and dialectical skills when they suit the situation.

Sessions emphasise real skills, thoughtful questions and practical steps to reduce overwhelm and improve wellbeing. She has six years of therapeutic experience and a background in psychology and counselling training. Sophie follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, guidance and keeps updating her skills through ongoing study and professional development.

Sessions can help people make small changes that add up to better mood, clearer thinking and improved relationships. Sophie aims to support people to build self-trust, try new behaviours and move toward the life they want with steady, manageable steps.

How Sophie’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values and then take small steps toward a meaningful life. It can help when anxiety, depression or life changes leave someone stuck and unsure what matters most.

Client-centred work puts the person’s experience first. The counsellor offers warm, non-judgemental listening and uses reflective questions so the person feels heard and can make their own choices about change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sophie will discuss goals and preferences and then use a blend of methods that suit those aims. That collaborative process means techniques can change as therapy progresses to match what is working for the client.

Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation that mirrors in-person sessions. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter reflections, ongoing check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily routines while keeping the focus on steady progress and useful skills.
