Sophie Rushmer

Counsellor - Relationship Therapy

As a dedicated and qualified relationship counsellor, I am passionate about empowering people to find their own path forward in a safe and open space. I believe in walking alongside people to gain insight into emotions, behaviours, thoughts and patterns.

Relationships Matter. When you feel connected in your relationship, everything feels possible. When the person you love feels distant, so does our sense of safety. But here’s the thing…disconnection isn’t permanent.

Repair is possible, even if it feels far away right now.

Create the relationship you really want. I work with couples and individuals who are ready to move beyond cycles of distance and shame, creating lasting emotional and physical intimacy. My approach nurtures self-awareness, confidence and a deeper understanding of the dynamics in their everyday relationships.

I am committed to supporting you throughout your journey to empowerment and transformation.  I work with:

  • Attachment wounds in relationships
  • Communication and conflict
  • Infidelity and repair
  • ADHD in relationships
  • Recovery from narcissistic abuse
  • Separation and divorce
  • Anxiety and people-pleasing

I live with my partner, four teenage children and a golden retriever called Bodhi in a blended family.

You are worthy of love which feels safe. Let’s work together to build healthy, strong, more connected relationships.
