About Sofia

Sofia Tanzanu is a counsellor and psychotherapist who blends client-centred care with cognitive and attachment-focused ideas. She uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people make sense of anxiety, stress, trauma and relationship strain. Sofia aims to make therapy feel human and adaptable, rather than one-size-fits-all.

She draws on eight years of practice in the United Kingdom and works from a BACP registration. Sessions focus on what a person needs now, whether that is relief from low mood, help with grief, or tools for coping with life changes.

Background and approach

Sofia uses simple strategies people can try between sessions. Her work often addresses how early attachments and current relationships shape feelings of abandonment, emptiness, or isolation. She also supports people dealing with chronic pain, illness, or the emotional toll of caregiving and compassion fatigue.

Conversations cover practical communication skills and ways to rebuild self-worth. People who come for help with seasonal affective disorder, social anxiety, or commitment worries will find a mix of short-term tools and deeper reflective work. Sofia pays attention to cultural background and the particular stresses that come with moving or adapting to a new environment.

Therapy with Sofia is collaborative and paced to each person. She invites steady progress through small changes, clearer thinking, and renewed purpose. Sessions aim to leave people feeling more able to manage day-to-day challenges and relationships.

How Sofia’s approaches work online

Sofia draws on client-centred work and attachment-based thinking alongside cognitive behavioural techniques. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person’s pace, which helps when someone needs space to feel heard and understood. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current patterns, useful for abandonment, trust or communication problems. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks unhelpful thoughts and behaviours into smaller parts, offering practical steps to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sofia will discuss different methods with each person and choose what fits their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where techniques are tried, reviewed, and adapted over time to find what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and reading body language. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a screen is not convenient. Live chat or text can suit shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while accessing registered or accredited professionals from different locations.
