Trauma-informed coaching for individuals and leaders navigating workplace bullying and high-pressure environments
Sophie Brigden
Sophie Brigden is an accredited ICF trauma-informed coach who helps individuals and leaders navigate difficult workplace bullying dynamics, process and recover from harmful experiences, and develop the inner resources to respond more constructively in high-pressure situations.
After experiencing a horrific Army tour, bullying and trauma, Sophie had to find her own path to recovery — a journey of self-discovery that led her to study psychology and trauma-informed approaches, and to rebuild herself from the inside out. Her partnership with FLOW for All reflects a shared belief in the power of safe, honouring spaces for people to share their lived experience and be truly seen and heard.
Why Sophie Brigden supports FLOW
I support FLOW because going through or seeing a loved one go through a difficult life challenge, trauma, or experience can leave us feeling disconnected, misunderstood and isolated.
FLOW offers a safe space and community for people to share their lived experience through writing and poetry, and to be truly seen and heard. Writing is such a powerful, creative way to truly express and share what can often be difficult to talk about. FLOW allows people to connect in a safe, respectful and honouring way and find acceptance in their story.
What they do
Sophie is an accredited ICF trauma-informed coach who helps individuals and leaders navigate difficult workplace bullying dynamics, process and recover from harmful experiences, and develop the inner resources to respond more constructively in high-pressure situations.
After experiencing a horrific Army tour and bullying and trauma, Sophie had to figure out how to recover alone, without support. This led her on a journey of self-discovery — learning tools and practices, studying psychology and trauma-informed approaches, and rebuilding herself from the inside out. As her own experiment, once she had recovered, she tested out what she had learnt to ensure it worked.
Whether dealing with workplace bullying or leading teams in high-pressure environments, Sophie's coaching provides a confidential space to reflect, gain perspective, and develop practical, solution-focused ways forward.
