Dr Sophia Chambers Clinical Psychologist and EMDR Therapist - Poole

Jim B.

Anyone struggling with life and not understanding why or feeling the need to try and improve their life, my strongest advice would be to see Sophia Chambers and use EMDR. She is a very kind and welcoming person and will immediately put you at ease. She can explain and put theory to so many issues and experiences. I have been seeing her for the past few months and it is no coincidence that I feel much calmer and happier. Thank you Sophia, you are exceptional. Highly recommended. James

Trying to put to words the immense impact that someone like Sophia can have in your life is truly an impossible job, yet I’ll attempt it nonetheless.

Whenever someone finds themselves in a place in life where they have the courage and vulnerability to seek healing, especially in a psychotherapy way, it requires such strength and bravery…you may try to talk yourself out of it, or drag your feet, or feel incredibly shy or nervous, wondering what on earth compelled you. Yet, and as you walk into Sophia’s room for your first session, the grace, compassion and wholesome wisdom you are met with will instantly soothe your heart and perhaps even bring you to tears. I wonder, if for some, it will be the first time they will feel truly seen.

I went to Sophia for help to heal many things, some of which I didn’t even realise were playing a role in my life. C-PTSD had me in a certain challenging loop, relationship trauma had me in perpetual grief, my body was holding on to things I didn’t need to be holding onto. We went through the EMDR process over a few sessions, throughout which I could feel my whole nervous system relearning stability and regulation. I could see (and feel) the positive effects in situations after sessions quite quickly, where I would be previously triggered and potentially spiral, to now, where it doesn’t even knock me off kilter. Sophia’s knowledge on IFS, for me, I found incredibly helpful too as I’m learning to hold space for the parts of me previously exiled or shamed.

To me, the approach Sophia takes in her work really allows for the healthiest relationship with yourself to blossom, and subsequently, your life to regain the brilliant spark you arrived here with. A clinical psychologist like no other..! And one which I’ll continue to return to, if not for healing, then for building my knowing of Self and developing the strengths which live within. Eternally grateful for you, Sophia, thank you 🙏🤍

Sophia is an incredible Psychologist to work with. She’s is patience, empathetic and incredibly knowledgable in her field of work. She was very easy to work with and talk to about vulnerable topics and would always be available to offer support in multiple ways. I came away from every session feeling listened to and given the right tools to help. I’d have no doubt in recommending Sophia to anyone.

I had fortnightly sessions with Sophia over a few months. She was empathetic and understanding from the start, which helped me to feel free to say whatever came to me without fear of judgment. We incorporated EMDR into the sessions, which I found very powerful. They definitely worked for me and aided the processing I needed to do. I would recommend Sophia to anyone looking for a caring and kind therapist.

Dr Sophia has been our rock since my husband started treatment for PTSD last year. Sharing personal experiences has not been easy but with Sophia's expertise, care & patience, the light at the end of a very long tunnel is starting to become clearer for him. Thank you so much from the both of us. We would highly recommend Dr Sophia.

Dr Sophia has been incredible in helping me manage my anxiety, depression and trauma. She is compassionate, kind, and gentle and made me feel completely at ease in our sessions. It is clear that she truly cares about her clients and puts a great deal of effort into her work. I could not have asked for a better therapist - I have been to a few and I can safely say that she is the only one who has truly helped! 100% recommend
