As March approaches and conversations turn to celebrating strong women and the impact they make in their communities, it feels like a fitting moment to reflect on the quieter forms of leadership and influence that often go unnoticed. In a world that celebrates constant productivity and outward success, there is something quietly powerful about choosing to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with who you really are. For London based psychotherapist Nino Sopromadze, this gentle but purposeful work sits at the heart of everything she does. Her practice offers adults a thoughtful space to deepen self understanding, navigate life’s inevitable challenges, and begin living with greater clarity and confidence.

Specialising in existential psychotherapy and counselling, Nino works with clients experiencing anxiety, relationship difficulties, identity shifts, low self esteem, major life transitions, and the familiar but hard to name feeling of being stuck or disconnected. Rather than approaching therapy as a process of fixing what is broken, she sees it as a collaborative journey into each person’s unique experience. Her aim is to help clients move from feeling that life is simply happening to them, to becoming active participants in shaping how they want to live.

This approach is grounded in compassion, respect, and genuine curiosity. Sessions are led by the client’s concerns and reflections, allowing space to explore personal challenges, recognise strengths, and work through areas of misalignment. Over time, this process supports autonomy and self trust, creating the conditions for meaningful and lasting change.

Nino works with adults from a wide range of backgrounds, including those in high pressure or public facing roles where discretion is particularly important. Her practice offers a calm, confidential environment in which clients can explore difficult thoughts and emotions without judgement. By working with a limited number of clients at a time, she ensures that each person receives focused, attentive care.

Her academic background reflects a deep interest in both the inner and outer worlds. Alongside her MA and PGDip in Psychotherapy and Counselling, she also holds an MA in Modern and Contemporary Art and a BA in Journalism. This diverse training informs a holistic and reflective therapeutic style, bringing together emotional insight, creative thinking, and a strong sensitivity to personal narrative and meaning.

Nino is a member of both the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and the Society for Existential Analysis, and offers therapy in person at her London practice, online, and in hybrid formats. This flexibility allows her to support clients locally and internationally, adapting to the realities of modern life while maintaining depth and continuity in her work.

As conversations around wellbeing, identity, and emotional resilience continue to grow, Nino’s work stands as a quiet example of how thoughtful, values led practice can make a real difference in people’s lives. In a week that celebrates women’s voices, leadership, and impact, her story is a reminder that change does not always arrive loudly. Sometimes it begins in stillness, in conversation, and in the brave decision to understand oneself more deeply.
