About Sophia

Sophia Jumagali is a counsellor who blends Jungian ideas with practical therapies to help people feel steadier in daily life. She uses clear tools and paced conversations to address anxiety, low mood, grief and relationship worries. Sophia works in English and Russian and sees people across the United Kingdom and internationally.

Sophia draws on client-centred practice alongside cognitive behavioural techniques to make therapy easy to follow. Sessions aim to help people understand thought patterns, develop coping strategies and rebuild confidence.

Background and approach

She keeps explanations simple and focuses on what will change day-to-day functioning. Her background includes an MSc in Psychology and eight years of experience with a variety of concerns. That experience includes supporting people through bereavement, life transitions and health-related stress.

Sophia has worked with some clients referred from charities and organisations in healthcare and insurance sectors. In the room she balances listening with practical exercises. Conversations often include noticing unhelpful thinking, practising grounding or mindfulness, and building small habits for improved focus and mood.

Therapy is collaborative - goals are set together and reviewed as progress happens. People come to Sophia for many reasons, from panic attacks and OCD symptoms to career stress and compassion fatigue. She also helps with relationship strain, issues around intimacy, and coping with guilt or shame.

Her aim is to help people feel more regulated, purposeful and able to meet life’s demands.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Jungian therapy pays attention to symbols, personal stories and inner imagery to help people make sense of recurring patterns. Online sessions can use discussion and reflective exercises to bring those themes into clearer focus for work on meaning and life direction.

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and supporting the person’s own pace of change. In remote sessions this approach creates space for people to speak freely while the counsellor reflects and helps clarify priorities for each meeting.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical techniques to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Over video or messaging the therapist can introduce short tasks, thought records and behavioural experiments to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then try methods that fit the person’s situation. This is a collaborative process with regular review and adjustments as needed.

Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to regular sessions. Video calls suit deeper conversation and visual connection, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a lunch break, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflections. These formats help people keep therapy consistent around work, family and travel commitments.
