About Sophia
Sophia draws on a mix of approaches to meet different needs. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and change unhelpful patterns. She also brings emotion-focused work to help people understand and shift intense feelings in relationships. Hypnotherapy and existential ideas are part of her toolkit when those methods fit a person's goals.
Over more than a decade in practice she has worked in private practice on Oahu. Her experience includes work with military service members around trauma, deployment challenges, anger, and relationship problems. In recent years she has also worked with athletes on peak performance and goal-focused mental skills.
Sessions are aimed at clear goals like improving sleep, reducing panic, repairing intimacy, or managing bipolar mood challenges alongside other supports. Sophia emphasizes collaboration - she and the person set priorities together and pick approaches that suit those goals. Her manner is direct and encouraging, with attention to what will change day-to-day life.
People who choose her can expect a mix of talk-based strategies, behavioral tasks to practice between sessions, and techniques drawn from her varied approaches to meet specific problems.
