Life can be overwhelming, and it can be hard to figure out what’s next on your own. Whether you’re feeling stuck, misunderstood, weighed down by stress, relationships, or emotions, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m Sophie, a Registered Social Worker with a Master’s of Social Work. I am especially interested in working with teens, students, and young adults experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, school or work related stressors, suicidal ideation, and self-harming behaviours.
In our sessions, you can expect a safe and judgment-free space where you can talk openly and feel supported. I’ll meet you where you’re at, and together we’ll figure out what works best for you. I use CBT, DBT, ACT, and motivational interviewing to help you build coping skills, gain perspective, and make changes that feel realistic and meaningful.
I offer virtual sessions Ontario-wide through LEO Psychotherapy. I'm currently accepting new clients! If you feel we might be a good fit, I’d be happy to support you in moving forward in a way that feels right for you. Please feel free to book a free 15-minute phone consult, session, or contact LEO Psychotherapy directly for more information.
