Great to meet you!

I provide counseling and psychotherapy to explore patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sometimes we need witness and encouragement recalling and telling our story; how did we get here and under what circumstances- - we invite a shift in our inner dialogue and set intention for gratitude and abundance, while navigating our inner child back home. We will access music, meditation, movement, talking, and traditional medicinal herbs.

A bit about my approach to therapy

La Cultura Cura: to recognize cultural values, traditions, and indigenous practices on the path to healthy development, restoration, and life long well-being.

What you can expect from our first session

¿Quién soy yo? or Who am I? - we will explore and identify what matters most to you and how to align with your values and goals.

Sophia's style is

Empowering
Warm
Affirming
