Central to Sophie's therapeutic practice is her belief in the transformative power of noticing oneself in context and the importance of building a therapeutic relationship based on curiosity, warmth, and respect. She strives to create a safe and welcoming space that recognizes and is rooted in an individual’s contexts, identities, values, and beliefs, collaborating toward goals that resonate deeply with the client’s unique life.

Sophie’s own identity as a Christian, cisgender woman, and queer-affirming Gen Z enriches her approach, making her particularly sensitive to the challenges faced by those navigating their personal and familial identities. She holds a special place for working with adolescents and families, helping them define and express their authentic selves.
