Practice & Approach

About Isabella

Isabella Hugh (She/Her) - Integrative Psychotherapist MA,MBACP, PGDip, PGCert

Creating a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship is at the heart of my practice. At Sonder Psychotherapy, I believe that through this connection, individuals can gain deeper insights into themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that shape their lives. I'm particularly interested in exploring how early experiences contribute to these patterns and how they can be addressed through compassionate and mindful therapy.

Training at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust, along with a Master's Degree in Integrative Psychotherapy, has equipped me to work with diverse clients facing a range of challenges. Clinical experience at a specialist NHS fertility service and a London University provided valuable experience supporting individuals through life transitions and everyday struggles, shaping my compassionate and client-centred approach. This clinical experience, including extensive work with trauma, relationship difficulties, and complex family dynamics, has cultivated a deeply empathetic and client-centred approach.

My therapeutic approach is deeply informed by a decade of experience working with families, which enhances my ability to understand and support individuals in their unique contexts.

As an Integrative Psychotherapist, I draw from psychodynamic, somatic, and relational modalities, including attachment theory, mindfulness, and internal family systems. This allows me to tailor my approach to each individual's unique needs, adjusting my approach as we work together.

A compassionate and empathetic presence characterises my therapeutic style. At Sonder, I strive to create a collaborative and trusting relationship, allowing individuals to explore, grow and heal at their own pace.

I provide a safe space for exploration and self-discovery, grounded in integrative and psychodynamic approaches, dedicated to helping people understand the nuances of their inner world and explore their emotions, vulnerabilities, and experiences.

This approach empowers clients to achieve their goals and develop the self-awareness and confidence needed to navigate present challenges, past experiences, and life-changing events. I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is essential for growth and healing.

Through this collaborative process, clients nurture inner strengths and develop tailored skills and strategies to address their unique needs.
