Biographical Info
I'm Sophia and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I work with couples and adults of all ages.
I am a cis woman, and I feel passionately about supporting trans, non-binary and gender diverse people. Personally, I have several close friends and an immediate family member who are gender non conforming or trans. I graduated with a degree in Gender Studies in undergrad, served as a community educator at Pacific Pride Foundation, and have loved supporting trans or non-binary people in my private practice. Whether exploring gender is a focus of our sessions together or whether you are simply looking for a therapist that is an informed ally, I would be happy to meet with you for a free consultation to see if we might be a good fit.
My approach is person-centered, focusing on the authentic connection we create together. I also integrate a variety of other therapeutic orientations, including psychodynamic, EMDR, CBT & mindfulness.
My areas of focus include anxiety, trauma (childhood, religious, domestic violence) & PTSD, perfectionism and people pleasing, codependency, attachment wounds and personality disorders, and grief.
I do not accept insurance at this time, but I do offer a limited number of sliding scale spots.
