My Approach to Therapy

Sophia Strydom is a Supervisee in Clinical Social Work and has over 15 years of experience in the mental health field. She supports adults and families dealing with depression, anxiety, borderline personality challenges, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), loss and grief, stress, relationship stress, coping skills, life changes, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), abuse, and trauma.

My Practice & Services

Sophia has a Master’s in Social Work from Salisbury University. She uses evidence-based techniques such as person-centered therapy, positive psychology therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), psychodynamic therapy, internal family systems, mindfulness, and psychoeducation. Opening yourself up in therapy can feel vulnerable and unnerving, but it can also be a great place to find more adaptive ways of living and thriving. She is committed to creating a safe, compassionate, collaborative therapeutic environment that fosters growth and healing, meets clients where they are, and empowers them.
