Therapy
Dr Soph will sit with you through the difficult times, and won’t rush you through them. If you need practical skills to manage what you’re facing, she’ll teach you them. If you need someone to challenge you, she’ll do that too, kindly and honestly. She’s compassionate, and she’s not the therapist who sits in silence. She’s a doctor, but you’re the expert on you.
