About Me
Hello, I’m Dr Sonia Pace, I’m a Chartered Consultant Clinical Psychologist with over 12 years experience working with adults in a range of mental health and well-being settings within the NHS and private sector.
​
As a psychologist, I always feel privileged to listen to life experiences and support people during challenging times. Witnessing moments of self-discovery, development, and recovery is a rewarding part of my job. I provide a non-judgmental, confidential space to explore and understand more about your difficulties; so, we can work together to achieve meaningful change.
​
It is important to me that therapy is a helpful experience and so my style is collaborative and transparent. I specialise in adult mental health, and work with a range of psychological difficulties, which include:​
-
Anxiety
-
OCD
-
Worry and Generalised Anxiety Disorder
-
Depression
-
Trauma and PTSD
-
Self-esteem and low self-worth difficulties
-
Difficulties in self-belief and confidence.
-
Difficulties in managing emotions.
-
Work related and performance stress.
-
relationship difficulties.
-
Bereavement, grief and loss.
​
In addition to my Doctorate training, I have also completed training in a number of psychological therapies, including Compassion Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, EMDR. I can therefore draw from a range of therapeutic models and strategies to tailor an approach to best meet your needs.
​
I work with you each step of the way, creating a supportive environment that enables self-discovery and growth.
