About Sonia

Sonia Roberts is a counsellor who uses a gentle, person-centred way of working. She draws on three years of professional practice in the United Kingdom and a long background in social care. Sonia aims to help people feel heard and understood as they talk through worries about parenting, family conflict, anxiety, stress and low self esteem.

Her style is calm and patient. She creates space for people to speak about difficult feelings without judgement. Sonia says her own life challenges gave her insight that helps when supporting others through hard times.

She combines client-centred listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to help with unhelpful thoughts and day-to-day coping. Sonia also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat across relationships and life choices.

Typical concerns she works with include depression, communication problems, isolation and issues around attachment or abandonment. She also supports people managing chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image and life purpose questions.

Sonia is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works with people in English and is available to international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used and sessions are then scheduled according to therapist availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Sonia works from a client-centred foundation which focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. This approach is about creating space for someone to share their story, feel heard, and set the pace for what they want to work on.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques for managing anxiety, low mood and stress. Psychodynamic ideas are used to spot recurring relationship patterns and understand how past experiences may shape current behaviour.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sonia will discuss goals and preferences and try different ways of working to find what helps most. She encourages feedback and checks in regularly about how the sessions are going.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly find that remote work can help sustain progress while fitting therapy around everyday life.
