Through her internship and work in a range of public and private settings, she gained knowledge and experience in assessment and intervention with children and adolescents.

During her training, Sophie gained experience working with children and adolescents with a range of concerns, including anxiety disorders (such as generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, selective mutism, and separation anxiety), depressive disorders, trauma- and stressor-related disorders, oppositional defiant disorder, gender dysphoria, and autism spectrum disorder. Sophie’s approach is caring, warm, empathetic, and collaborative. Her practice draws on a range of evidence-based approaches tailored to each client’s needs and strengths.

For her doctoral research, Sophie explored coping strategies that may help reduce anxiety among adolescents from immigrant backgrounds who experience ethnic discrimination.
