About Sophia
Sophia Resciniti is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life changes. She aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where people can speak honestly about what they are facing. Sophia tailors conversations and plans so each person’s needs guide the work.
Sophia uses straightforward talk therapy to help people cope with difficult emotions and events. She focuses on practical steps to reduce distress and build daily habits that support wellbeing. For people dealing with addiction, depression, bipolar disorder, or panic attacks, she works to find realistic strategies that fit everyday life.
Her approach also attends to relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, and career or identity questions. Sophia addresses feelings of shame, guilt, isolation, and issues that come with aging or end-of-life caregiving. She also supports people processing experiences related to domestic violence, dissociation, and first responder stress.
Sophia integrates methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, attachment-based work, existential ideas, and a client-centered stance. She adapts techniques to what a person finds most useful, rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Therapy sessions are collaborative and paced to the person’s readiness.
Sessions are offered in English and Greek and take place from her practice in New York. Sophia asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin, so she can better understand goals and needs before scheduling.
How therapy approaches inform online care
Sophia draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. That approach is often useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with major life changes.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioral experiments. CBT can help with panic attacks, depression, OCD symptoms, and many day-to-day mood or worry problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sophia will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful together. She adjusts methods as progress is made, so the plan reflects each person’s needs rather than a fixed protocol.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since formats are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, remove travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people continue care after a disaster or major life change when getting to an office is difficult.
