Sophie Skipp, BACP
Sophie Skipp is a BACP counsellor who focuses on practical, person-centred support.
About Sophie
Sophie Skipp is a BACP counsellor who focuses on practical, person-centred support. She welcomes conversations about stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Sophie keeps sessions straightforward and calm so people can talk about what matters most to them.
She uses a person-centred way of working that puts the client's experience at the heart of each session. That means Sophie listens carefully and helps clients make sense of feelings at their own pace.
Background and approach
She often introduces mindfulness exercises when these feel helpful for managing worry and low mood. Over four years Sophie has supported people through bereavement and ongoing loss. That work has involved navigating identity shifts, anxiety and complex grief reactions.
She has also worked with neurodiverse people, including those with autism and attention differences, and adapts her approach to suit individual needs. Sophie is comfortable talking about panic, social anxiety, workplace stresses and feelings of emptiness. She uses solution-focused methods to help clients identify small, practical steps for change.
Sessions aim to leave people with clearer next steps and ways to cope between meetings. People who contact Sophie can expect a steady, down-to-earth style. Conversations are guided by what the client brings, with mindfulness and short-term planning available when helpful.
She offers sessions online so people can connect from where it suits them.

Approaches Sophie lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also draws on mindfulness to teach simple exercises for calming the body and mind. These practices can help reduce immediate stress and make day-to-day feelings more manageable. Solution-focused techniques are used to set small, realistic goals and notice practical steps that move things forward between sessions.
Figuring out the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Sophie will discuss options with the client and adjust methods based on needs, goals and preferences so the work fits the person rather than the other way around.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports short check-ins or written reflection. These options aim to make counselling more flexible and accessible around daily life.
