Sophie is trained in Child-Centered Play Therapy, Sandtray Therapy, Emotionally Focused Family Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Her attachment lens informs her work in supporting family members in strengthening their connection and felt-safety, particularly through the use of Theraplay with young clients and their caregivers as well as her attachment-informed parent coaching services. Sophie is passionate about the use of expressive and creative therapies including play therapy, sandtray therapy, and art therapy to promote self-expression and healing, especially in the processing of traumatic experiences and difficult life events. Sophie strives to create a warm, accepting and welcoming environment in which clients are able to show up as their whole selves and feel safe, seen and supported.
