More about Sophie

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hello I'm Sophie! Welcome! Whether you are coming to therapy to navigate difficult life challenges or support in reframing your thoughts, thinking through how your past affects you or finding ways to be more in the present moment, I'm happy to support you by providing an individualized approach. Therapy is a collaborative process and I take a relational approach to support you in achieving your goals, navigating difficult situations and supporting you in enhancing your coping skills. I approach therapy with each individual differently and begin to develop an understanding of an individual’s strengths, how your identities may influence you in the world and what is most helpful for you personally. I work hard to create a safe space to support the individuals I work with and feeling comfortable safe and supported. I value open communication and seek to help you feel heard and listened to.

I look forward to hearing from you so we can begin to develop a therapeutic relationship and I can support you in navigating what you're going through.

I have a master's degree in clinical social work from the University of Pennsylvania and a Bachelor of Arts from Smith College. As a LCSW, Licensed clinical social worker, I am trained to support people going through a variety of mental health challenges and I'm comfortable working with you to provide the best therapeutic care. I have 5 years of counseling experience providing individual, family, and group therapy in a variety of settings. I have successfully supporting folks through all sorts of challenges and life changes, particularly those that involve transitioning through life changes, navigating identity and figuring out how to feel less stuck. Most specifically I have expertise working with adults, families, teens, communities of color and LGBTQIA folks.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Sophie is by far the best. I want to thank her for the work she has done with me. She is really gifted

Reviewed September 2020

Sophie lends me that ear that I’m missing in my life to disclose thoughts that may never be spoken out loud and then making sense of them. She has a gift for empathy and I can feel even through the phone/texts.
