Η Μπαμπίλη Σοφία είναι Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Σταμάτα. Εκπαιδεύτηκε στην Ανασυνδιασμένη Εκλεκτική Συμβουλευτική ,συνεχίζει την εκπαίδευσή της στο London Metropolitan University και είναι πτυχιούχος στη Διοίκησης Επιχειρήσεων από το Πανεπιστήμιο Πειραιώς, με περισσότερα από σαράντα χρόνια εργασιακής εμπειρίας. Η Ανασυνδιασμένη Εκλεκτική Συμβουλευτική είναι μια σύγχρονη, ευέλικτη προσέγγιση που δεν περιορίζεται σε μία σχολή σκέψης. Συνδυάζει στοιχεία από διαφορετικά συμβουλευτικά και ψυχοθεραπευτικά μοντέλα, επιλέγοντας κάθε φορά ό,τι ταιριάζει καλύτερα στον άνθρωπο και στη φάση ζωής στην οποία βρίσκεται. Η διαδρομή της ειδικού δεν είναι μονοδιάστατη. Προέρχεται από τον χώρο της εργασίας, της ευθύνης και των απαιτητικών ρόλων ζωής. Έχει ζήσει τις πιέσεις, τις αλλαγές, τις απώλειες και τις μεταβάσεις που φέρνει ο χρόνος. Αυτή η εμπειρία είναι αναπόσπαστο κομμάτι του τρόπου που προσεγγίζει τον άνθρωπο. Πιστεύει ότι η κατανόηση δεν γεννιέται μόνο μέσα από τη γνώση, αλλά και μέσα από τη ζωή. Η απόφασή της να ασχοληθεί με τη συμβουλευτική ψυχικής υγείας δεν ήταν τυχαία. Ήταν αποτέλεσμα ωρίμανσης και βαθιάς ανάγκης να σταθεί δίπλα σε ανθρώπους που βρίσκονται σε φάσεις εσωτερικής κόπωσης, αναζήτησης ή επαναπροσδιορισμού. Στη δουλειά της, δίνει έμφαση στη σχέση και στον σεβασμό της προσωπικής διαδρομής του κάθε ανθρώπου. Δεν πιστεύει στις έτοιμες λύσεις ούτε στις γρήγορες απαντήσεις. Πιστεύει στη διαδικασία, στην παρουσία και στη σταδιακή κατανόηση. Είναι εδώ για όσους θέλουν να μιλήσουν ουσιαστικά. Για όσους έχουν ξανακάνει τον κύκλο και είναι έτοιμοι να τον διανύσουν με άλλον τρόπο.
