Hello! My name is Sophie. I trained as a
Clinical Psychologist in the UK and I’m registered in the UK with
the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).
I offer in person therapy sessions in Paris and online sessions for
English-speakers based in France, the rest of Europe and the UK, to
support adult mental health and wellbeing using Brief
Solution-Focused Therapy, an evidence-based short term therapy. I
worked for the NHS in London for over 8 years, with adults and
children experiencing mental and physical health difficulties. I now
work with people experiencing a wide range of difficulties; my main
areas of specialisation are chronic health conditions and parental
mental health/parenthood.
I have been trained to use a number of different therapies and have
seen their different benefits which I'm so pleased to be able to
offer sessions based on Brief Solution Focused Therapy. I know from
the evidence-base and clinical experience that this can help you
move forward in your life, effect change quickly and help you cope
in even the most difficult circumstances.
All therapies involve developing a meaningful relationship with your
therapist. But while many therapies have an 'archaeological'
approach, that is going back into your past experiences, or a
'problem-based' approach looking at what is going wrong for you, the
Solution Focused approach shifts the conversation to helping you
identify for yourself your own best ways forward, in real and
manageable ways. Our work together will help you identify the
changes you want to experience in the future, and what could help
make them happen. It's a transformational approach which is
forward-looking and very practical. And it's cost-effective - many
people see changes in their life from only a few sessions, and often
only need between 5-8 sessions spread out over a number of months
before they decide that things are going well enough to stop
meeting.
I offer a free 15 minute conversation for you to check to see
whether my way of working is a good fit for you right now.
My office address is: 33, rue du Docteur
Heulin, 75017, Paris
