Project Description
Sophia Arthur-Uchendu, Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, MBACP and NCPS accredited.
Welcome! I’m Sophia, a compassionate and experienced counsellor and psychotherapist. I provide a safe, supportive space where individuals, couples, and families can explore their concerns and begin their healing journey. Whether you’re in your late teens, a young adult, or further along in adulthood, I’m here to help you navigate the complexities of life.
Areas I Can Help With:
I work with a wide range of issues, including but not limited to:
- Trauma (PTSD) and trauma-related difficulties, especially stemming from challenging upbringings.
- Depression, anxiety, and stress that feel overwhelming.
- Relationship struggles, including marital issues and conflicts between parents and their teen/young adult children.
- Self-esteem and confidence issues that impact your daily life.
- Communication issues, divorce, abuse, and feelings of confusion or being stuck.
A Unique Approach to Therapy:
Taking the first step to seek therapy can feel daunting, but you’ve already made a major move towards healing by being here. I blend various therapeutic approaches tailored specifically to your needs, drawing from person-centred counselling, psychodynamic therapy, humanistic counselling, and cognitive behavioural therapy. My pluralistic approach ensures that you receive the right support at the right time for your unique situation.
I understand that every client is different. Together, we might:
- Journey back through your personal history (Psychodynamic) to uncover patterns affecting your present.
- Focus on practical strategies for managing thoughts and behaviours (CBT) that aren’t serving you well.
- Explore your potential and personal growth (Humanistic), supporting you to live a more fulfilled life.
I also integrate psychoeducation throughout our work, so you leave each session with a better understanding of what’s happening for you and why.
A Culture-Aware, Inclusive Practice:
As a woman of colour, I bring a deep understanding of cultural dynamics to my practice. Whether you’re navigating cultural issues or seeking faith-based support, I offer an open, non-judgmental space. I provide Christian faith-based counselling and psychotherapy for clients who wish to integrate their spirituality into the healing process. Regardless of your background, you are assured the highest level of care, respect, and unconditional positive regard.
Special Focus on Couples Therapy:
I also work with couples, helping partners navigate relationship challenges, improve communication, and rebuild trust. Whether you’re dealing with ongoing conflict, infidelity, or simply seeking a deeper connection, I can help you work through issues and strengthen your relationship.
Training, Qualifications & Experience:
I hold a Professional Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and have extensive experience working with diverse clients facing a variety of life challenges. My training encompasses a broad spectrum of modalities, enabling me to offer tailored, effective support based on what’s best for you.
