She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and focuses on supporting people experiencing stress, anxiety, parenting strain and grief.

How Sonia's Approaches Work Online

Sonia uses client-centred therapy to focus on the person's experience. This approach means she listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, helping them make sense of feelings and priorities.

She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find and strengthen their own reasons to change. That approach is useful for tackling stuck patterns, building motivation and planning small steps that feel achievable.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sonia will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit the person's needs. The process is collaborative and adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online therapy lets sessions fit around everyday life. Video calls are similar to in-person talks and suit deeper conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier on the day you only need to speak. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, shorter reflections or when writing helps organise thoughts.

These options improve flexibility and make it easier to keep momentum between sessions, track small wins and maintain support during change.
