About Sophia
Sophia Hammoudeh helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions and relationship strains. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, sleep or eating difficulties, low self‑esteem, anger and life changes. Sophia communicates plainly and aims to make the first contact as straightforward as possible for a worried parent or individual.
Sophia works from a flexible, person-focused perspective. Sessions are adapted to each person's needs rather than following a fixed formula.
Background and approach
She draws on several approaches to shape work that fits who you are and what you want to change. Her approach uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and take small values-led steps. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships affect present patterns.
Client-centred techniques keep the conversation grounded in what matters to the individual. Sophia also offers elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy to address strong emotions in relationships, and she may use hypnotherapy for issues like anxiety or sleep disruption when appropriate. These methods are woven together in plain language during sessions so people understand what is happening.
She is registered with the BACP, has five years' experience and works with English and Arabic speakers. Sessions are offered online across the United Kingdom and to international clients, using video, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps find the right fit and then sessions are scheduled according to the therapist's availability.

Online support
She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns shape current behaviour and emotional responses. This approach is helpful for intimacy issues, relationship strains and attachment concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sophia will discuss options with the client and choose methods together based on needs, goals and personal preference. That collaborative planning can change over time as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and emotional work, phone sessions suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, while chat or messaging can be used for brief check-ins or between-session support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around busy lives and different schedules.
