Sophia Jumagali

Sophia Jumagali is a counsellor who combines person-centred listening with practical, evidence-based tools. She uses an approachable style to help people manage anger, anxiety and low mood. Sophia explains how thoughts and habits affect feelings and offers simple strategies to cope day to day.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness to teach techniques for calming the body and changing unhelpful thinking. Psychodynamic and Jungian ideas inform longer-term work that looks at recurring patterns and life themes. Sessions aim to be collaborative, with short-term plans when people want quick relief and deeper exploration when they want lasting change.

Sophia has eight years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her background includes work with people facing bereavement, chronic health challenges and life transitions. She also has experience supporting people who identify as neurodivergent, for example with ADHD or autism, when that is relevant to their concerns.

Typical issues she addresses include stress, relationship difficulties, grief, addictions, trauma, low self-esteem and anger. She also helps with specific problems such as panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, social anxiety and seasonal mood shifts.

Sophia offers sessions in both English and Russian and works with people in the United Kingdom and internationally. People start by completing an online questionnaire and then schedule sessions that suit them. Fees vary depending on location and the subscription model used, which can be cancelled at any time.

How Sophia Uses Talking Therapy Online

Online sessions often combine person-centred listening with practical CBT techniques. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping people feel heard, which supports building trust and clarifying what matters most. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers clear exercises to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours, which helps with anxiety, panic and anger management.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest ways forward. This is a collaborative process, so plans can change as needs become clearer and progress is reviewed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy week, reduces travel time and makes it easier to keep regular appointments. Online sessions can allow for shorter check-ins when life is hectic, or longer sessions when deeper exploration is needed. Ask about scheduling, session length and any practical details when you arrange your first meeting to make sure it suits your day-to-day life.
