My Views

My Approach
I offer evidence-based, individually tailored psychological therapies for a wide range of psychological difficulties I have an individually designed consultation room, carefully tailored to a therapeutic focus, providing a safe and nurturing environment.
Introduction to me:
Dr. Sonia Shah (DClinSci)
A Passionate psychotherapist whom works with individuals and groups.
I use a range of therapeutic approaches and skills to provide psychotherapy which will enable individuals to reflect on their current situation, find ways of expressing and communicating their understanding of the things going on in their life and to develop new skills to help them cope with their situation.
I endeavour to maintain a centre of clinical excellence. I believe in the importance of being an approachable human being, and in developing equal and ethical partnerships with everyone I have the privilege of working with.
My Approach to Psychotherapy
My approach to individual therapy is tailored to each individuals needs, helping individuals navigate challenges and improve mental well-being. I focus on enhancing communication, strengthening relationships and addressing unique relational dynamics. I focus on providing a safe and understanding environment in our sessions.
I offer short- and long-term psychotherapy. Sometimes, people find a few sessions are all they need to work things out and get back on track. For others, a longer-term approach may be helpful, particularly if difficulties have been there for a long time. The first session will be a chance for you to talk about how you have been feeling and what you may be hoping for. If we feel that I am not the right person to help you at this time, I will do my best to recommend some other options for you.
