THERAPEUTIC COACHING
I work with people from all walks of life, at any stage of their journey, who are ready to cultivate true happiness—beginning from within. Together, we’ll create the space for you to explore, heal, and grow, so you can build the relationships and life you’ve always wanted, one rooted in inner peace and authentic joy.
What is therapeutic coaching?
Â
Therapeutic coaching blends the best of both worlds—drawing on the depth of therapy and the forward momentum of coaching. It supports you in healing the past, while also empowering you to step into your best and happiest future.
Common themes we can explore together:
- Gently taming unhealthy thoughts and feelings that no longer serve you
- Navigating the ebbs and flows of relationships, whether romantic, platonic, or professional— and developing healthy communication and boundariesÂ
- Cultivating self-confidence by quieting self-doubt and easing negative self-talk
- Breaking free from familiar patterns that have kept you stuck
- Learning to respond, not react, to emotional triggers with grace
- Finding clarity in making important decisions and aligning your choices with your happiness and growth
- Building resilience to bounce back from life’s inevitable challenges
- Easing feelings of worry and anxiety
- Overcoming fears of rejection or failure so you can pursue your dreams
- Releasing the grip of perfectionism and accepting yourself more
- Discovering your true direction and purpose when you feel lost or uncertain
- Increasing comfort with others’ emotions and demands without feeling overwhelmed
- Breaking patterns of self-sabotage (the tendency to get in your own way) and building deep self-trust
- Expanding your capacity for self-love, self-compassion, and kindness
How does coaching with me work?
Â
Our work together is a journey that honors where you’ve been, where you are, and where you're called to go. It's holistic. It’s heart-centered. It’s mindfulness-based. It’s deep. It’s down to earth. Every session focuses entirely on your unique needs and desires and creates a safe and compassionate space for you to explore, reflect, and grow.
Â
Whether we meet via telephone, Zoom, or in-person, each 55-minute session is personalized to help you reach your personal, relational, or spiritual goals.
We’ll use a variety of approaches to suit your personal needs—whether it’s parts work to bring healing to the wounded places in you, mindfulness-based techniques to soothe and ground you, strategic questions to shift your perspectives, or writing prompts to invite deeper awareness. Together, we’ll craft practical, nourishing strategies for your life, rooted in self-understanding, self-love, and aligned goals and decisions.
The frequency and length of our work together will unfold naturally from your unique needs and desires, which we will discuss in our first call.
ONE-ON-ONE COACHING (FOR INDIVIDUALS)Â OR ONE-ON-TWO COACHING (FOR COUPLES)
(in person, via telephone, or Zoom)
Are you ready to invite true joy in your life, manage your thoughts and emotions effectively, or transform your relationships? My one-on-one coaching is tailored to help you do just that. And if you and a loved one—whether it be a romantic partner, friend, or family member—are seeking growth and healing together, my one-on-two coaching offers a space to heal and grow together.
During our time together, we will work together to help you experience consistent progress, healing, growth, and support, all tailored to your unique needs and desires. My goal is to provide you with the tools and confidence to continue flourishing long after our time together ends.

Other Ways We Can Work Together
SINGLE ONE ON ONE COACHING SESSION
Are you curious about what therapeutic coaching can do for you, but not yet ready to commit to a full program just yet? A single session is a perfect way to experience the transformative potential of therapeutic coaching. Together, we'll explore new perspectives and possibilities and set you on the path toward living a truly happy life.
This is also a wonderful option if you’d like to gift someone special in your life the gift of healing and clarity.
GROUP COACHING PROGRAM
Join me on a 16-week journey to uncover genuine happiness in a supportive, non-judgmental environment with like-minded, like-hearted individuals. In this supportive, non-judgmental space led by Dr. Sophia, we’ll explore, learn, and heal together. Personalized guidance, motivation, and a sense of community will help you nurture happy relationships and a happy life from the inside out.
SEMINARS ANDÂ PRESENTATIONS
If you're looking for a fun, informative, and interactive experience for your group, I offer customized seminars and presentations on the science of happiness, the art of healing, or key ingredients of healthy, or joy-filled relationships full of practical tools, strategies, and insights. Each experience is tailored to your group’s needs and includes a mix of lecture, meaningful discussion, and small group exploration.

When I came to Sophia, I was having a lot of cycles of emotion that I couldn’t understand, that felt uncontrollable, and that were impacting my happiness and ability to be present in my relationship. Sophia helped me identify feelings, give space to them, learn my negative thought loops, learn what my needs and boundaries were, and communicate them with more ease and acceptance. With each passing session, I went from feeling a lot of repressed anger, pain, and confusion to being able to stop my painful cycling thought loops. I look forward to some deeper work and tuneups with Sophia, and have referred her to numerous friends!

Before I started working with Sophia, I was in a bad place mentally, had several health issues, and knew that I wanted things to change. However, I lacked the support, accountability, and guidance that I needed to make the change and healing happen. In Sophia, I had a kind, resourceful, and exceptional listener and coach that, from personal experience, I can say is so rare. Sophia gave me unconditional support and deep understanding, no matter what the goals or personal issues that I wanted to work on. Through Sophia’s guidance, I also learned to embrace all my emotional experiences and welcome all parts of me, a transformative and invaluable skill that I still use as I continue to work on my personal growth and healing. I feel incredibly grateful to have found Sophia and would highly recommend anyone giving her coaching a try!

At the beginning of my session with Dr Sophia, I felt a bit nervous because I had never done this type of therapy before. I also felt hope that, with Sophia's expertise, I might experience some healing over time. Our time together more than met my expectations and proved to be more productive than I could’ve imagined! From just my first session, I was able to see from first-hand experience the potential for real healing and happiness that exists from this kind of work, and I began to experience some actual comfort with regards to some of my long-time hurts.
Dr. Sophia herself overflows with compassion and kindness, she puts you at ease, and she demonstrates authentic care and concern with a complete absence of any judgment. I’d say that a one-on-one session with Dr. Sophia is a worthy investment for anyone who is serious about finding true healing and happiness!
