About Sophie

Sophie Paquette is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and addiction concerns.

With nine years of experience, Sophie focuses on straightforward, practical work. She listens first and follows the person’s pace. Sessions emphasize skills you can use between meetings alongside checking how you feel about progress.

Her practice is oriented toward everyday concerns like parenting stress, relationship strain, work burnout, and life transitions. Sophie also supports issues related to adoption and foster care, first responder stress, sexual assault and abuse, and body image. She aims to create a space where practical change and personal understanding happen together.

How Sophie’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person and their story. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the person identify their own solutions. This approach is useful when someone needs support to sort feelings and find direction.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. Sophie may introduce practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking patterns and build new routines, which helps with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Trauma-focused therapy addresses the effects of past harm in a careful way. It includes methods to reduce the hold of painful memories and to build coping skills for triggers and flashbacks.

Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. Sophie will talk with each person about goals, comfort level, and what has worked before. Together they choose methods and adjust them as therapy progresses to match needs and preferences.

If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks at work. Some formats may also be better for shorter or more frequent check-ins, while others suit longer, deeper conversations.
