What People are Saying

“I have absolutely loved completing Sophie's story writing course. My confidence in my own writing ability has improved and I have found the whole process hugely enjoyable. I have finished the course with a completed story which I'm very proud of. I now have the skills and confidence to write further stories which I know will help and support the children and families I work with. If you are interested in the benefits of therapeutic stories, then I urge you to go on a journey with Sophie's Stories. You won't regret it! ”

“The personal journey you take with Sophie's Writing Academy is incredible. I started the course with tremendous doubt, nerves, and strong negative affirmations that I am not a capable therapeutic story writer for children... Well. I proved myself wrong and managed to quieten the negative voice, because by the end of the course I had written a fully-fledged story! And not just me. The individuals that I shared my journey with have wrote, or are in the process of writing, their stories, and the ones that I have been privileged to read so far have been absolutely amazing. The space that Sophie creates is that of warmth, acceptance and 100% belief in our abilities to write a story. Having such an environment was the foundation in us growing and opening the door to the creativity that lays within each and every one of us. Thank you Sophie ”

It gives you all you need to feel confident in your own ability. Sophie has such a supportive nature and is very approachable. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to write their own therapeutic stories, Sophie's belief in you means you can't fail!! I didn't realise how many ideas I had until I listened to Sophie's training. Thank you so much Sophie! ”
