Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Location: Mississauga
Sophia has completed her Master of Psychology in Clinical Psychology degree at Adler Graduate Professional School. She brings over five years of experience in community-based mental health work, with a particular focus on improving access to care and supporting individuals through periods of change.
Sophia works with individual clients using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy. She has experience helping clients with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and failure to launch.
Her approach is collaborative and supportive, with an emphasis on helping clients better understand the challenges they are facing, develop practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful and sustainable change. Where appropriate, Sophia also draws on existential perspectives to help clients explore broader questions related to meaning, identity, values, and purpose.
Prior to her clinical training, Sophia worked closely with youth with intellectual disabilities, supporting their transition into adulthood. She has also worked in education across the GTA, helping individuals and families access mental health and disability-related resources.
Sophia practices under the close supervision of Dr. Nelson Byrne, Clinical Director at Connect Cognitive Therapy.
