A Bit About Me And My Story
I'm Sophie,
​
As the Founder, Head Therapist and Clinical Lead of Transformed Therapy New Zealand, I bring a multidisciplinary, person-centred approach to mental health support and recovery.
​
With lived experience, I understand firsthand how complex healing can be — whether you’re facing an eating disorder, anxiety, low mood, trauma, or life’s many transitions. My personal journey led me to pursue qualifications in various areas, initially for my own recovery, and now to support others with empathy, knowledge, and depth.
​
My background in therapy, being a teacher, eating disorder recovery coach, nutritionist, and personal trainer allows me to approach wellbeing holistically—addressing the mental, emotional, and physical aspects of healing. This integrated perspective informs everything we do at Transformed Therapy New Zealand, whether we’re working with individuals navigating eating disorders or clients facing a wide range of life challenges.
​
While eating disorder recovery remains a deep passion of mine, I’m equally committed to helping people with issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and more. I believe that therapy should be collaborative, empowering, and tailored to the individual—not a one-size-fits-all process.
​
Whether I’m working 1:1 or in a group setting with clients or leading my team, my mission is simple: to offer compassionate, evidence-based care that truly supports people in building meaningful, lasting change.
​
You don’t have to just survive. You deserve to thrive—and we’re here to walk with you every step of the way.

Daisy
Eating Disorder Recovery Coach
A Bit About Me And My Story
I’m Daisy, an eating disorder recovery coach with lived experience, and I’m deeply passionate about helping others navigate their healing journey.
My own path through an eating disorder and into full recovery has shaped the way I support my clients—offering not just professional guidance, but genuine understanding from someone who has been there.
​
Recovery can feel overwhelming, isolating, and even impossible at times. I remember those feelings well.
But I also know that with the right support, compassionate accountability, and practical tools, lasting freedom is possible.
My approach is rooted in empathy, empowerment, and helping you rediscover your identity beyond the eating disorder.
Together, we’ll work towards creating a life that feels fulfilling, balanced, and truly yours.
​
You don’t have to do this alone—let’s take the next step forward together.

My journey through my eating disorder—and the challenges of reclaiming my life afterward—fuels my passion for this work.
I understand the struggles, setbacks, and victories that come with recovery, and I know that real healing isn’t just about food—it’s about rebuilding self-trust, confidence, and a meaningful life beyond the eating disorder.
​
My coaching is personalised, compassionate, and rooted in a holistic approach.
I help clients develop practical strategies for recovery while also addressing the emotional and identity shifts that come with it.
