My name is Sophie and I’m on a mission to create a powerfully resourced community of compassionate professionals who are inspired to work with the life cycle of women and families in homes, hospitals and schools, using simple but powerful mindset tools that create deep connection and powerful change.

I’m a best-selling author of three books (Penguin Random House) and award-winning therapist, coach and writer with 20 years’ experience of helping people transform their lives in the moments when they may feel they are struggling most. I graduated with a master’s from one of the top universities in the world specialising in culture and the power of alchemy in language, which still informs my practice today.

My audio-tracks and meditations have been downloaded 100,000’s of times, which placed me in the top ten author pages for Penguin globally and my three books Mindful Hypnobirthing, Mindful Mamma and Mindful Menopause have sold over 100k  copies.

Amongst other print media, I’ve been featured in the Telegraph, Marie-Claire, Platinum and The Independent. I work with high profile clients from around the world and have spent time in Australia, the US and the UK training professionals to work with families.

I’ve trained doctors, midwives, psychologists and talking therapists within the NHS and privately, in methods that support women and families as they navigate parenthood

My children are now young adults, and I’ve learned so much through my journey of being a parent. The number one thing being – that it never stops. There are always challenges which seem to come out of nowhere, which is why you need someone to help you navigate the tough journey of being a parent in a world where it’s easy to feel overwhelmed with information and disconnected from your children.

It began at birth for me when I discovered how I could condition my mind to respond the way I wanted it to, managing pain, maintaining clarity and connecting with an inner strength I didn’t know I had. Alongside advocacy coaching I learned techniques such as hypnosis and mindfulness, something that I would never have thought to try before then. I attended a family retreat with Thich Nhat Hanh when my children were toddlers and I’m a passionate about the power of compassionate connection in family life.

It isn’t just about your children. In all honesty, it begins with you. The old oxygen mask adage is true – you cannot help your children if you don’t help yourself.

If you are interested in any of my training for either birth, early years or menopause please get in touch. There is also the option to run tailored training in-house.
