Sometimes life can feel lonely, stuck and meaningless. We live in a world that encourages us to cut off from our feelings, from our sense of being truly alive. When we do this, we can begin to feel rigid, anxious, depressed and empty. I am passionate about helping adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem and relationship issues. My approach is to help you connect to your body and emotions in a way that helps you know yourself more deeply, feel more confident in your decisions. Using these methods, we can help, pull you out of depression & anxiety spirals.

Being vulnerable with someone new can be very intimidating, but let me tell you a secret…you can laugh in therapy. I know it sounds wild. But I’m being completely candid. Some of the best moments in my career have been when we have found humor even while carrying our heaviest burdens.

Perhaps you’ve done extensive talk therapy before. You can identify your patterns, explain your attachment style, trace your coping to childhood experiences, but still struggle to make real behavioral change. The part of the brain that holds these patterns isn’t just reached through insight, but through experience and emotion.
I work with individuals and couples who are ready to do deep inner work. My approach combines somatic awareness, parts work, and attachment-focused depth therapy to help you access and shift unconscious patterns—not just talk about them.

At the heart of my therapeutic practice is the recognition that as humans, each of us is interconnected with the people and environment around us. My approach honors your relationships, emotions, and culture. By uncovering how all the pieces of your daily experience interact we can create a deeper understanding of your relationships and life, which in turn can create a bridge for lasting change. We will work together to cultivate clarity, connectedness, courage, and creativity and all of this will allow you to learn to thrive in life rather than survive.

I specialize in children and teens with a history of trauma, explosive behaviors, or attachment difficulties. I connect well with grumpy boys, kiddos who are shy or struggling to fit in, creative/quirky types, and confused parents wondering: how do I help? Together, we'll identify strengths and make progress that can be celebrated to increase self confidence and motivation. I will provide tools and support to empower you to understand why behaviors might be happening and to create change. I also work with adults exploring their neurodivergence and inner child wounds through talk, art, sand tray, and other expressive modalities.

My clients are women who've stopped feeling like themselves — whether that's new motherhood, anxiety that won't turn off, perimenopause, or just years of carrying everyone else's needs before your own. I'm Sophie, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience. I specialize in the transitions that rarely come with a manual — pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause — plus the trauma, anxiety, and identity questions that come with them. I help you stop asking "what's wrong with me" and start understanding yourself again. And if it's easier in French, I'm fluent — we can work in French too.

You’re smart, capable, and exhausted from working twice as hard just to keep up. Maybe it’s ADHD. Maybe it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, or the emotional weight of trying to function while masking who you are. More often than not, it’s a combination of these. I work with neurodivergent adults, LGBTQIA+ folks, couples, parents of ADHD adolescents, and professionals who want more than symptom management—they want a life that actually works. Through therapy, ADHD coaching, parent coaching, and evidence-based education, we’ll build practical skills, deepen self-understanding, and create strategies that work for you

I prefer to use "Out of Control Sexual Behavior" as it is sex-positive while trying to correct the behavior.
I believe in client feedback for setting goals and evaluating whether therapy is working for them. It's not my goals or "success rate" that is important but what the client experiences. I value working with clients who know what a 'better life' will look like, will work on getting there, and will provide feedback about progress or resistence. Of course I'm there to provide help when stuck but I value clients to provide their feedback and be engaged in the therapeutic process.

It's incredibly easy to feel overwhelmed and disconnected with life, especially these days when so much can feel uncertain. Without the proper mental health tools to tackle your issues, you may find yourself in a repetitive loop of the same old behavioral patterns. It can be exhausting and frustrating to feel stuck in life and you may wonder where you went "wrong." It may feel daunting to reach out to a therapist (no, really, I get it!) but know that my sessions are free of judgment and are a safe place to talk and problem solve. I believe you have most of the answers you need: I'm merely the facilitator to help you in your crisis.

My goal is to provide you with a safe space to process difficult things but also empower you so that you leave each session feeling a little more whole than the last. Within this space your needs come first and you get to choose what you want out of your treatment. Judgment will never be placed on you and you can be your true genuine self. My approach to therapy is warm, empathetic, and strengths based. I utilize several different modalities to best meet individuals needs but almost always incorporate some form of positive psychology and/or mindfulness to strengthen neuro-connections in the brain that influence positive thinking..

So you are looking for a therapist and possibly wondering “why should I choose this therapist over any other?” Good question. Once you’ve found a therapist with a solid background in what you want to address, it is all about therapeutic approach and personality fit (the elusive rapport). In our initial introductory conversation (15 minute call) you can tell me about what you are looking for, I'll tell you about myself, and we’ll see if I am a fit. You can also visit my website for more details on me and my practice: TherapistBrowell.com
