About D. Sophia Arthur-Uchendu
D. Sophia Arthur-Uchendu, who asks to be called Sophia, is a UK-based BACP-registered therapist with five years of professional experience. She works primarily with adults, offering a pluralistic and trauma-informed practice that places each person at the center of the work. Sophia blends evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with client-centered principles such as unconditional positive regard, and she supplements therapy with psychoeducation to help people better understand their patterns and options.
Her practice supports individuals, couples, and groups facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and grief. She also works with issues related to adoption and foster care, attachment and blended family concerns, communication problems, faith-based conflicts, hospice and end-of-life matters, immigration, infidelity, isolation and loneliness, and life-stage challenges including midlife and aging. Sophia welcomes people seeking Christian faith-based therapy.
Using a flexible mix of modalities, she tailors interventions to each client rather than applying a single method to every situation. Her background in evidence-based CBT informs practical strategies, while her trauma-informed stance ensures sensitivity to how past experiences shape current difficulties. Sophia is committed to accompanying clients through complex life transitions and helping them identify meaningful steps forward.

Integrating therapeutic approaches with flexible online access
An approach rooted in client-centered therapy means the therapist prioritizes the individual's experience, offering empathy, acceptance, and collaboration so clients can explore their feelings and goals at their own pace. This style supports relationship and identity concerns as well as everyday stressors.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and mood-related issues and provides practical tools clients can apply between sessions.
Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on understanding the impact of traumatic experiences and developing strategies to reduce their ongoing effects. It aims to help people process difficult memories and build coping skills that support day-to-day functioning.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey. Registered professionals and therapists work collaboratively with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals and to adapt methods over time so the plan fits each person’s situation.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for accessibility and convenience. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow sessions to fit into busy lives, support clients who live far from services, and provide multiple ways to connect depending on comfort and circumstances.
