Sophia Jumagali, BACP

Sophia Jumagali is a psychological practitioner who combines scientific understanding of the brain with compassionate, person-centred care. She holds an MSc in Psychology from Essex University, a postgraduate degree in psychology, and is accredited with the BACP, the professional association for counselling and psychotherapy in the United Kingdom. Her training includes advanced work in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), EMDR, psychotherapeutic counselling, hypnotherapy, and psychoanalytic approaches, which she weaves together to meet the needs of each person she supports.

Sophia is focused on helping people make sense of how their minds work and on building practical strategies to feel more regulated, confident, and capable. Her practice draws on neuroscience and psychoanalytic insight alongside evidence-informed techniques to address anxiety, low mood, trauma-related stress, and everyday challenges. She works with a broad range of concerns including stress, relationships, grief, self-esteem, addictions, family issues, and career-related pressures, as well as supporting those with neurodivergent experiences such as ADHD and autism.

Throughout her career she has supported clients referred by organisations including Macmillan Cancer Support, Aviva, and Bupa. Sophia aims to create a collaborative atmosphere where people are respected and informed, focusing on what matters most to them whether that is managing overwhelming feelings, improving focus, or restoring balance and confidence in daily life.
