About Sophie Bellamy

Sophie Bellamy describes therapy as a resource people turn to when difficulties begin to interfere with everyday life and other approaches have not resolved the issue. She has developed an integrative model informed by developmental and relational perspectives, combining elements of Gestalt theory with attachment ideas to understand how personal history and relationships shape experience.

Working from this integrative framework, Sophie uses tailored methods to help people build practical resources and clearer pathways toward more fulfilling lives and relationships. Her approach emphasizes understanding patterns that arise from early connections and present-day interactions, and then exploring new ways of relating and coping that fit each person’s situation.

Sophie holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and frames her work in a compassionate, non-judgemental manner. She aims to provide a supportive therapeutic space where individuals can explore challenges, develop insight, and find concrete steps for change.

Attachment and acceptance in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take actions that align with their values. It is often helpful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. It supports people in understanding attachment styles and developing more secure ways of connecting, which can be especially useful for relationship, intimacy, and abandonment-related concerns.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a compassionate, non-judgemental therapeutic relationship where the therapist listens closely and helps the client lead the pace and focus of sessions. This approach can aid self-esteem, grief work, and building internal resources.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and Sophie will work collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Registered professionals and therapists often blend methods to match the individual rather than following a single technique.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people balancing work, family, or geographic limitations. These options make it easier to access consistent care, maintain momentum between sessions, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each person.
