After 15 years of working in the field, she is still as passionate about helping/supporting others along their life journey and more specifically with helping individuals break the cycle of violence.

Sophie knows how ‘’reaching out’’ is often the hardest, yet most important step to take for ourselves and she looks forward to helping you determine what the next step will be to get from where you are to where you want to be.

Sophie is described as having a kind, supportive and non-judgmental approach. She is a great listener, easy to talk too and comes with a great sense of humor! Sophie is certified in Choice Theory and has acquired & continues to fuel her passion by learning new skills to add to her helper’s toolbox. However, she believes in adapting to the needs of the person(s) in front of her so she draws from different approaches to meet their individual needs (i.e. Brief Solution Focus, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Strategies, Mindfulness, Trauma Informed, Impact Therapy Techniques, etc.) all while building on their individual strengths.
