I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 30 years of work experience. I have worked with individuals with issues of anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, stress, self-esteem, borderline personality disorder, and the full range of psychotic symptoms and mood disorders. I also have experience and am comfortable working with couples and families, addressing issues such as communication problems, conflict resolution, and relationship enhancement. I am a practical, interactive solution-focused therapist who incorporates a blend of conventional and alternative approaches - drawing upon various styles and techniques in the process. I have worked with a diverse population of clients and in many different settings-from acute emergency-based care to community mental health setting to private practice. I take special pride in cultivating a spirit of caring and respect for everyone I see regardless of the problems or issues they might bring to counseling.
It takes courage to embark on the healing journey that is counseling. My focus is to work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgement. I achieve this by actively listening, providing empathy, and maintaining confidentiality. As they commence the process, that will lead to a sense of wellbeing and vitality. Working at a thought and feelings level can be the catalyst for unraveling the puzzle that is our lives and can lead as well to the resolution of problems and issues that limit our capacity to lead productive and happy lives as we develop the skills needed to navigate the difficulties encountered in daily lives. My passion is to support each individual’s journey with hope as they travel the road to wholeness, wellness, freedom and empowerment. It takes courage to undertake this venture and I am grateful and honored to be able to encourage and validate the personal strength and willingness needed to take this big step forward.

She is a great listener. Asked lots of questions. I truly believe she really wanted to know about me to truly help me. Plus I liked that she randomly had her Orange Tabby Cat in the session. I feel very comfortable being open with her.

Today was my initial assessment with Sophia and I must say that it was a lot more than I expected. I was so comfortable with her that I was able to start sharing immediately, which is not what I intended to do. I intended to make her gain my trust but it just came so naturally with her that I didn't have to wait. I'm looking forward to having sessions with her weekly.

I absolutely love Ms Sophia! I had a different therapist in the beginning but we didn’t click like I wanted. Ms Sophia and I mesh very well so far! She’s very attentive and shows concern like I need. She also asks questions to get me to open up which is what I needed. You don’t always know what is a trigger for yourself until someone says something that reminds you.

Sophia is the absolute best. Her kindness and support has helped me through the worst that I’ve experienced. To have someone that is understanding and open minded about your current situation, she creates a safe place for me to openly talk about myself, my struggles, and things on my mind. Throughout my therapy sessions, she’s always helped me address my concerns and provides different materials to find a solution to my issues. I’ve never met anyone so kind, compassionate, and beyond understanding. All my sessions with Sophia had opened my perception on approaching things in a different way. I would highly recommend Sophia, she is without a doubt - a wonderful soul.

Sophia is truly amazing!
I feel confident that she listens to me and takes great notes because she is able to recall details of situations and people we've spoken about even after weeks have past since the last detailed discussion. Sophia is extremely personable, empathetic and relatable. So much to the point where there are times when we converse as if we were friends that have known each other for years. And to be honest, she has saved my life.
I whole heartedly recommend Sophia to anyone who truly needs a therapist that not only listens, but listens to the point where they CAN and WILL offer the kind of support you need but would have never expected!
