About Sophia
Counsellor (BACP) with 8 years' experience. Sophia Jumagali helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and grief issues, plus addictions and compassion fatigue. She works in English and Russian and accepts international clients.
Sophia uses several approaches in her practice, drawing on Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Jungian ideas, Mindfulness Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy. She explains how the brain and patterns of thinking contribute to mood and behaviour. Sessions focus on practical strategies as well as exploring underlying feelings and patterns.
People come to her for things such as panic, obsessive thoughts, low self-esteem, social anxiety, and the effects of trauma or bereavement. She also supports those facing career change, caregiving stress, end-of-life concerns, and multicultural issues. Communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, jealousy and loneliness are also within her scope.
Sophia combines evidence-based techniques with reflective dialogue. That means using clear tools to manage symptoms alongside conversations about personal history and meaning. Clients learn skills for regulating emotions, improving focus, and reducing unhelpful thought patterns.
Her background includes work with charities and corporate partners on referrals related to health and life transitions. When starting, she and the client identify priorities and practical steps. Sessions aim to build confidence, reduce distress, and help people manage everyday demands more effectively.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and priorities. The therapist listens and reflects back what matters to the person, helping them clarify goals and feel understood. This approach is useful for issues such as low self-esteem, life purpose and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people spot and test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours. It emphasises concrete strategies for anxiety, panic, obsessions and low mood, including short exercises that can be practised between sessions.
Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to present-moment experience through simple practices. It supports managing rumination, stress and emotional reactivity, and can be combined with CBT techniques to increase emotional regulation.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sophia will collaborate with each person to agree which methods to try first, adjust methods over time, and set clear, practical goals that reflect the client’s needs and preferences.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as these are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people practise new skills in their everyday context while keeping appointments consistent with daily life.
