About Sophie
Sophie Grimmett is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She qualified with a Master’s degree, Level 7, from the University of Wales and has five years of work experience in local counselling services and within the National Health Service. Sophie works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger and related concerns.
Sophie draws on a humanistic foundation and mixes in practical tools and psychoeducation. She uses straightforward techniques to help people name patterns, notice triggers and try new ways of responding. Sessions include discussion of self-care and skills that can be practised between meetings.
Her experience includes roles in community services and secondary mental health teams. Sophie currently works as a Psychological Therapist within the NHS and has supported a wide range of mental health concerns over five years.
In sessions she aims to set a direct, non-judgemental tone where feelings can be talked through plainly. Conversations focus on what matters now and on small steps that can reduce reactivity and build steadier responses to stressors.
People come to Sophie for help with anger that shows up at home or at work, recurring resentment, difficulty sleeping, changes in mood, or coping after loss. She also offers coaching-style conversations for career and life changes alongside therapeutic work.
How sessions work
Practical therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Sophie works from a humanistic base and adds evidence-based techniques to support change. Humanistic work focuses on understanding the person’s experience in clear language and helping them make sense of feelings and choices. This can help when anger stems from unmet needs or repeated relational patterns.Alongside that foundation she uses structured psychoeducation and practical tools. Psychoeducation explains how stress, sleep and mood interact, while simple skills give steps to try when tension rises. These techniques suit issues such as anxiety, anger, and sleep disruption.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. Sophie will discuss options with each person and decide together which approaches fit best with goals and preferences. That means sessions can shift between reflective conversation and short skills practice as needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins, or avoid travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can also adapt how a session runs to match quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth or a preference for phone rather than video.
