Rewrite. Rewire. Reclaim.

ReStory Collaborative Therapy (RCT) is my signature therapy method, rooted in the belief that you are not the problem—the patterns you learned to survive are. RCT is here to help you gently unpack those emotional blueprints, understand where they came from, and most importantly, rewrite the story you’ve been telling yourself. It’s a blend of narrative therapy and NLP, designed for people who want real, lasting change—not just more coping strategies or surface-level solutions.

If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “Why do I always end up here?” or “What’s wrong with me?”—you’re not alone, and you’re not broken. Most of us are walking around carrying stories that were shaped in childhood, by trauma, or by trying to keep the peace. RCT helps you separate from those old, painful narratives and reconnect with who you really are underneath all the self-blame and overthinking.

In our sessions, we’ll map out the emotional patterns playing out in your life, uncover the hidden beliefs driving them, and find the moments (yes, they’re in there!) when you’ve already started choosing differently. Then we’ll build on those moments to co-create a story that feels more like truth and less like survival mode. It’s collaborative, honest, and full of heart—no stuffy therapist vibes, no drawn-out timelines. Just real, effective therapy that helps you rewire your mind, rewrite your narrative, and reclaim your life with more clarity, confidence, and self-trust.

Let me know if you want to tuck in a client quote or a call-to-action at the end. I can also help you tweak this for a landing page or an email welcome sequence.

Heart to Heart: Relationship Coaching for Individuals & Couples

Let’s be real, relationships can be amazing, but they can also be hard.

Healthy relationships are built on trust, communication, and understanding, but let’s face it, sometimes we all need a little help figuring things out. Whether you’re feeling stuck in constant conflict, struggling with self-doubt in relationships, or just want to feel more secure and connected, I’ve got you.

My relationship coaching is designed for individuals and couples, so whether you want to work on things together or on your own, you’re in the right place. No judgment, no awkward therapy vibes, just a safe, supportive space where you can be real about what’s working (and what’s not).

With practical tools, emotional coaching, and a fresh perspective, we’ll work together to break unhealthy patterns, strengthen trust, and create the kind of relationships that actually feel good. And it all starts with the most important one, the relationship you have with yourself.

 Available online or in person in Southampton. In-person sessions take place in a safe community space within October Books, offering a warm, welcoming environment to focus on your relationship goals. 

Walk and Talk Therapy

 Need a change of scenery? Or just find it easier to open up while moving? Walk and Talk therapy is the perfect way to shake off stress, clear your head, and get some fresh air, literally.

There’s something about walking side by side that makes talking easier. No awkward eye contact, no stiff office chairs, just a relaxed, natural way to work through whatever’s on your mind. Plus, being outdoors is a game-changer. Fresh air, movement, and nature all help boost your mood, reduce anxiety, and spark new perspectives.

And hey, we can even feed the ducks while we chat, because sometimes, a little nature therapy (and some happy quacking) is exactly what you need.

If you’re after a flexible, informal, and energizing approach to therapy, let’s hit the path together. Walk and Talk sessions take place at Riverside Park, Southampton.

Life-Changing! Before working with Soph, I felt completely stuck in old patterns. Now, I finally feel confident, empowered, and in control of my life! Her approach is fun, refreshing, and seriously transformational

I was drowning in heartbreak and self-doubt, but after just a few sessions, everything shifted. Sophie 

helped me see my worth, set boundaries, and move forward with clarity and confidence. Forever grateful!

I never realized how much my past was holding me back until I started this journey. Soph helped me let go, rebuild, and step into a version of myself I never thought was possible. I’m happier, stronger, and finally free

​

I thought healing had to be heavy and serious, but working with Sophie was eye-opening in the best way! She makes deep work feel approachable, fun, and actually effective. If you're thinking about working with her—DO IT!

Break Free. Heal Deep.
Thrive Loud.

I have a genuine fascination with people’s life stories and the ways we connect with each other. Human relationships—whether romantic, familial, or the one we have with ourselves—shape so much of our experience, and I love helping people untangle those stories. Our narratives—the stories we tell ourselves about who we are, what we deserve, and what’s possible—are shaped by our experiences. From childhood to heartbreaks, successes to struggles, every moment contributes to the way we see ourselves and the world. But just because a story has been written one way doesn’t mean it can’t be rewritten. My job is to help people challenge the narratives that are holding them back, recognize the strength in their experiences, and create a version of their story that empowers them to move forward with confidence and clarity. I believe real healing happens through connection—being seen, heard, and understood—and that’s at the heart of everything I do

I created ReStory Collaborative Therapy™ because I saw too many incredible women stuck in emotional pain, convinced they were the problem. They blamed themselves for their failed relationships, their self-doubt, and the patterns they just couldn’t break—without realizing that these struggles weren’t a reflection of who they were, but of the stories they’d been handed.

We don’t just live our lives—we live the stories we’ve been told about who we are. And sometimes? Those stories are total BS.

Restory Collabration Therapy™ it’s a collaboration between powerful techniques like Neuro-Linguist programming and Narrative Therapy designed to create deep, lasting transformation—without spending years in therapy. It’s also a collaborative experience between client and therapist, where we work as a team to co-author your narrative, and reframe limiting beliefs. It’s fast, powerful and even a little fun.

Traditional therapy can feel heavy, clinical, and sometimes even exhausting. That’s not what I do. ReStory Collaborative Therapy™ isn’t about diagnosing or dissecting you like a case study. It’s about real conversations, real change, and real freedom from the emotional baggage that’s been weighing you down.

I don’t believe in endless sessions that keep you stuck in the same old loops. Instead, we focus on rewiring the emotional attachment to your past, so you’re not just coping—you’re actually healing. My approach is warm, direct, and non judgemental, because therapy shouldn’t feel like an uphill battle.

This isn’t about years of talking—it’s about changing the way you feel so you can move forward with confidence, clarity, and a story that finally feels like your own. No clinical jargon. No endless digging. Just real transformation.
