Dr. Sonney Gullu-McPhee

Dr Sonney has given my Mum, stellar support and CBT. My Mum was in a very dark place having lost my Dad and moved to a completely new environment after 58 years. Dr Sonney helped my Mum gently breakdown the route causes of her trauma, gave her numerous self help tools and general support. My Mum has absolutely turned a corner with much thanks to Dr Sonney, my Mum is living and enjoying a full life again. Thank you so much Dr Sonney ❤️🙏

Sonney is incredibly kind, patient, and caring, and has always made me feel comfortable, safe and listened to. Over the time I have worked with her, she has made such a lasting difference to my life. She has supported me through anxiety and trauma with compassion and understanding, and has helped me develop a much kinder and more positive way of viewing myself and the world around me. Her use of compassion-focused practices and EMDR has been particularly valuable to me. She has always been someone I can trust and rely on, and her warm, friendly and positive nature makes every session feel like a safe space.

I have been working with Dr Sonney for the last few years and cannot thank her enough. I find our sessions deeply supportive, insightful and have her to thank for my continued development, growth and understanding of myself. I would highly recommend Dr Sonney and have been able to overcome my trauma and history thanks to her wonderful support.

I couldn’t recommend Dr. Sonney Gullu-McPhee more! She explained the process clearly and was extremely supportive at all times. I felt very comfortable sharing information with her and she made the whole ADHD diagnosis process really straightforward and reassuring.

One of our young adult children was suffering from severe anxiety and depression. She was no longer functioning, and the impact was felt across our whole family. At times, we were deeply fearful for her safety. We found Dr. Sonney at a particularly low point in her life. From the very beginning, she brought both hope and calm to our child and, by extension, to our entire family. Over time, her deep clinical expertise resulted in tangible and lasting change to the way our child saw herself and the trauma she had experienced. Dr. Sonney achieved this with extraordinary compassion and empathy, and with an unwavering commitment to supporting our child throughout her journey. There is a Jewish saying: "Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire." That is what Dr. Sonney has done for our child and, in doing so, for our entire family. We will always be profoundly grateful.

Would highly recommend Sonny to anyone struggling. Very kind, understanding and helpful in making plans to move forward in whatever struggles I had. Didn’t appreciate quite different my life would be until now. Don’t hesitate in visiting Sonny. It’s life changing.

I came to therapy at a point where I could feel my life shifting, but something kept getting in the way of the person I wanted to become. I didn't have the language for it yet, I just knew there were roots to things I couldn't quite see. My biggest fear going in was that a therapist wouldn't be able to understand me and I think that was partly mirroring me having a hard time understanding some parts of myself. My first contact with Sonney was a brief phone call I had made to her when I was trying to find the right therapist, and within minutes it was clear that she got it. She got me. She suggested I speak to a few other therapists before deciding. I appreciated that, and quietly ignored it. I had a gut feeling I'd found the one. I was never wrong about her, not once. Sonney was so quick to see what I needed and where my patterns were coming from, before I could articulate it myself. She made me feel special and genuinely cared for, she builds real connection with an ease.

Sonney helped me with a late stage ADHD diagnosis when I reached one of the lowest points in my life, she has been helping me improve my life (and brain) for over a year now and I don't know what I would do without her. Sonney really listens to your issues, and not only offers emotional support but practical steps to help. Schema Therapy has been a great approach to breaking down and handling problems. When talking with Sonney I feel heard and that she truly understands what I am experiencing. She genuinely cares for all of her patients and often goes the extra mile, I feel I can turn to her for help at any time about anything. I can't recommend her enough to anyone struggling with mental health or ADHD.

I have found the sessions very helpful. Sonney’s approach is kind, supportive, and non-judgemental. She brings a thoughtful and professional approach to the sessions, and has provided helpful guidance that has supported my personal growth. I really appreciate her support.

I can't thank Sonney enough for her support and guidance during the most difficult period of my life. She helped me explore therapy for the first time, and thanks to her, I'm now in a much more positive and healthy place. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a compassionate and effective therapist.

I've been seeing Sonney for about two years, and the progress I've made during that time has been truly life-changing. She balances compassion with practical guidance, and that combination has helped me create real, lasting change in my life. I'm in a far better place today than when I first started. I'm incredibly grateful for her support, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I have been working with Dr. Sonney Gullu-McPhee for over a year, during one of the most difficult periods of my life, and I genuinely cannot express how grateful I am for her support. She is incredibly kind, compassionate, and deeply insightful. Dr. Gullu-McPhee has a rare ability to make you feel truly heard and understood, while also gently guiding you toward clarity, strength, and growth. Her approach is thoughtful, non-judgmental, and empowering. With her support, I was able to navigate challenges that once felt overwhelming and develop healthier ways of understanding myself and my experiences. I always felt safe, respected, and supported in our sessions. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Gullu-McPhee to anyone seeking a psychologist who is both highly professional and genuinely caring.

I am very thankful to Sonney. Being able to speak in Turkish felt so supportive, and it meant a lot to work with someone who understood me culturally as well as emotionally. She is incredibly intelligent, wise, and compassionate, and I felt truly understood throughout. I would highly recommend her.

Over the course of my therapy journey, which lasted approximately two years, you helped me understand myself better and see certain things from a different perspective. Your support and approach during this process were truly valuable to me. Thank you for your dedication and effort.

I met Sonney many years ago in Hawaii and she is a knowledgeable wise and intelligence psychologist. I highly recommend her.

Sonney's help was life-changing. She is very helpful and caring. I strongly recommend.

She is a professional. Thoughtful, caring, and focuses on her clients needs. Highly recommended.

Sonney worked with me for 4 years and provided me with a safe space to offload the difficulties I was experiencing. Sonney has great wisdom and knowledge in many areas of psychology and her kindness and understanding allowed me to find compassion for myself and others and to develop tools to keep me well. She worked with me at my pace and I never felt anything was too much trouble. Her receptiveness towards my needs was outstanding and Sonney even referred me to an autism specialist for a formal diagnosis, which has helped me have greater confidence and understanding about my needs. It all fitted together like a jigsaw and Sonney was able to find that missing piece in me. Sonney is an incredibly intuitive psychologist and working with her proved to be a most valuable experience. I would highly recommend Sonney to anyone needing help navigating their journey. It is definitely a rewarding ride to take in Sonney's capable hands. If I could give her a million stars, I would. My life has changed so much since meeting her and I can truly say that I have discovered the inner peace that had been missing all those years beforehand. A wonderful psychologist and genuine human being.

I was suffering from excessive unfocussed anxiety. With empathy and expertise Sonney guided me through a highly effective analysis and therapy that she tailored to my situation as we went along. As a result I quickly gained the understanding and tools to enjoy life again. Highly recommended.

I couldn't recommend Sonney highly enough, she has helped me tremendously. Her incredible amount of knowledge, skill and insight along with her warm, empathetic nature has helped me so much.

I've seen several psychologists before seeing Sonney and cannot recommend her highly enough. After moving countries, I was in search of a new psychologist and Sonney had specialist training in my diagnosis and additional skills training relevant to support people like me. I have seen Sonney on and off for the best part of 10 years. Initially intensive support and regular face-to-face sessions provided the help I needed. Now I am in a much better position and see Sonney as and when I need it. Her compassion, empathy and professionalism have made a world of difference to me.

I have known Sonney for a few years and she has been brilliant at supporting my wellbeing and mental health. Talking to Sonney has given me a calm, caring and a non-judgmental space. Because of Sonney I have less anxious periods, a better relationship with my family and coping techniques which are very helpful. I highly recommend Sonney.

It is very hard to put into words the profound effect that seeing Sonney has had on my life. I originally saw her years ago to help me deal with some challenges I was having in relation to recovering from a period of deep depression. Sonney helped me to understand what parts of my make up contribute to my struggles and helped me let go of some of these things. Without being overly dramatic, she completely turned my life around. More recently, I have faced some different challenges and went back to see her. The second set of treatment is, other than the birth of my children, the most life altering and profound experience of my life. I am forever in awe of the kindness, compassion, intelligence and skill Sonney brings to her practice. I am not a person who trusts others easily, but I feel completely at ease in her company. Safe and secure. This allows an openness that is so important to me within my treatment. If you are looking for a Psychologist to help you, or just even considering it, you can stop your search now. Sonney is the best. Hands down. Thank you Sonney, for all you have done for me. I will be forever in your debt.

My beautiful caring daughter has autism and ADHD, and suffers with her mental health. Dr Gullu-McPhee has been outstanding! She is exceptional at building trust with her patients, listening to their issues and helping them to build and understand practical interventions to ease the pressures of everyday life. My daughter's mental health is so much stronger as a result of the time spent with Dr Gullu-McPhee, that I cannot recommend her highly enough!

I cannot recommend Dr. McPhee enough! Her professionalism and genuine care shines through in every session. I've been seeing her virtually and in person, and the convenience of her flexible scheduling has made it so easy to prioritise my sessions despite a busy schedule. She's located in Petersfield, but her virtual appointments mean she's accessible no matter where I am. Dr. McPhee creates a safe, supportive environment that has allowed me to open up and work through challenges at my own pace. She truly listens and provides insightful guidance. If you're looking for a compassionate and highly skilled psychologist, Dr. McPhee is absolutely the one to see.
