About us

My name is Sonia Fernandes and you are very welcome!

I am a pre-accredited psychotherapist offering a safe, grounded space where your story can be met with care and curiosity. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by something you cannot quite name, therapy offers a place to begin untangling what lies beneath the surface—gently, and at your own pace.

My work is rooted in compassion, honesty, and real human connection. I draw on psychodynamic and integrative approaches, with a particular focus on trauma, attachment, and the lasting imprint of early life experiences. Whether the pain is recent or long buried, I support you in making sense of it—so you may begin to feel more whole, more steady, and more like yourself.

I hold a BA(Hons) in Counselling and Psychotherapy and am currently a pre-accredited member of the IACP. I am deeply committed to ongoing learning and development, with a particular interest in complex trauma, ADHD, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation. I also hold a Certificate in Traumatic Stress, a ADHD-CCSP Certificate, and an EMDR foundational training to treat PTSD and complex trauma. 

If you feel like you might feel comfortable working with me, get in touch and we can discuss your needs. It would be an honour and privilege to walk your path to healing alongside you.
