Sofia Madrid

I’m Sofia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Certified Trauma Professional (CTP), and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist (CEDS) based in New Jersey. This work is deeply meaningful to me, both professionally and personally, and I bring that understanding into how I show up—with care, warmth, and authenticity.

I support adolescents and adults who feel stuck in their relationship with food, body image, or exercise, as well as those navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, or life transitions. I currently serve as Program Director for an eating disorder PHP/IOP and have extensive experience supporting clients across all stages of recovery.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and compassionate. I help clients build a calmer, more sustainable relationship with their body, exercise, and food. I tailor evidence-based tools—like CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic therapy—to your unique needs, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

Healing looks different for everyone, and I’m here to meet you where you are, offering care that honors your story, your values, and what matters most to you.

In your first session with me, my goal is to help you feel seen, heard, and understood. We’ll spend time getting to know you, exploring what brings you to therapy, and identifying your priorities and goals. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be honest about your experiences and challenges, and together we’ll begin to map out a path forward that feels realistic and supportive. From the start, you can expect a collaborative approach—I’ll listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and help you start building a life that feels meaningful and worth living.
