I am energetic, insightful, direct, inquisitive, and a dynamic clinician. My ideal client would be one that wants to explore opportunities for growth and who is motivated to dig deep into the therapeutic process. Clients who experience anxiety, life transitions, or trauma often need a safe place to process those challenges. This allows clients to get to the root of the issues and learn ways to move forward versus feeling stuck. It is important that clients understand that I can be direct, but I will always respect your unique needs and have a solid understanding that one size does not fit all when it comes to mental health.

I work with people not diagnoses. First and foremost I want my clients to know that they are not on their own. I first began to study counseling psychology because I enjoy helping people. When a person comes into my office it is usually because they are in need of help. Through the use of various psychological techniques I strive to assist those who seek to find what they are looking for. I also offer HIPPA compliant video counseling for convenience.

Everyone has a time in their life where they come upon roadblocks that hinder your ability to reach your greatest potential; by removing these blocks you can surpass any difficulties. My approach to therapy is to meet clients where they are and come alongside them in their journey to healing. I believe that the heart of therapy is the therapeutic relationship which consists of creating a safe judgment-free environment accepting of individuality and the culture/heritage of each client.

Your partner is arguing with you about a fight from last week. He’s raising his voice, but all you hear is a voice in your head saying, “How did we get here?” You once shared a deep sense of connection and understanding and now barely make it through the week without bickering. It breaks your heart. The spark between you is gone, and the only time you’re fired up is while blaming one another. It’s devastating to feel the dreams you shared slipping away from you. You’re lonely, misunderstood, and there is a chasm in your bed that’s impossible to cross. Y

What does it mean to prioritize your mental health? I ask this question to help shed light on one of the most effective ways to handle life's challenges and unresolved trauma. Therapy opens doors to unlimited possibilities, your ideal self. I focus on helping my clients step outside themselves and explore hidden aspects of who they are. The fear of the unknown is real and therapy allows you to traverse that journey with a facilitator, someone you can reach out to in a crisis.

I earned my master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and am licensed as an LPC-Associate. I've worked at a mood and anxiety center and in community mental health, gaining experience with the many different ways anxiety and mood struggles show up from person to person. I also spent over 13 years as a personal trainer, strength coach, and yoga teacher before this career, and that background still shapes how I work today; I pay attention to the body, not just the mind, because real change usually involves both.

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.

Sex-Positive, Kink Allied Therapists
Why might an individual want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
A sex-positive or kinky individual may want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist because the client may feel safer and more supported discussing their experiences and challenges. A therapist who identifies as kink-friendly will have experience with clients having diverse sexual preferences and will likely be nonjudgmental and supportive about issues brought to the table. It is important to note that sex-positive, kink-allied individuals may find equal success with therapists who do not have such specialized knowledge and background. The most important factor in the success of therapy is for the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond.
Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in sex-positive, kink-allied treatment?
Generally, no. There are limited training programs and unofficial accreditations that therapists can pursue, but a therapist’s expertise will ultimately come from their previous experience with similar clients, their engagement with organizations that promote sex positivity or kink-allied lifestyles, and the importance they place on safety and cultural sensitivity.
How can individuals recognize a good sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
An experienced therapist is able to help clients explore their sexual identity and expression and relieve any discomfort or stigma attached to discussing such matters and the client’s overall challenges. A therapist who is sex-positive and kink-allied is able to create an environment that honors a client’s experience and sexual preferences. To recognize a good therapist, clients can simply ask directly about topics and issues important to them and gauge their comfort level and connection with a clinician based on the responses.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist with a focus on sex positivity and alternative sexual lifestyles?
Some individuals may feel most comfortable knowing that the clinician they’re working with has a commitment to creating an atmosphere of sex positivity and has experience with relationship diversity and alternative relationship structures. Working with a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist may help clients respect their own challenges and improve identity-affirming treatment.
