Sophie Winter (they/them)

Counselor

“I believe all parts of you are worthy of compassion, understanding, safety and fulfilment. I think of therapy as a space for you to feel heard, make sense of your experiences, and build self-compassion and the skills needed to live in greater alignment with your needs and desires.”

About Me

If you are seeking a compassionate space to truly be heard, I can help. We will gently explore your experiences together, building understanding and self-compassion. My approach guides you to develop practical skills. This helps you connect with your inner wisdom, living more authentically. This is ideal for those wanting to align daily life with their deepest needs and desires.

Approach

Therapy with me focuses on noticing how your past and present shape choices, offering a steady space to untangle painful patterns and recognise small strengths. Working online from Copenhagen in English, sessions are paced to suit you, blending gentle curiosity with practical steps. We address trauma, shame, relationship strains and mood shifts through compassionate inquiry, grounding practices and personalised coping plans, sometimes with brief reflective tasks between sessions. This approach tends to help adults seeking safer, clearer ways to live in line with their values.
