About me

Hello, my name is Sofia. I have a MA in Clinical and Forensic Psychology and have been working as a Psychologist since 2005. I'm also a Hypnotherapist, Sound Therapist and a specialized Yoga and Breathwork teacher. I have worked in many hospitals, schools and private clinics until I decided that I wanted to work from home and have the freedom to choose where to live. For that reason I have been working online in different places (mostly in the UK and Spain).

I speak:

Approach

I want to share with you my favorite quote from Theodore Roszak that represents a very important principle of my work approach: “You and I… We meet as strangers, each carrying a mystery within us. I cannot say who you are; I may never know you completely. But I trust that you are a person in your own right, possessed of a beauty and value that are the Earth’s richest treasures. So I make this promise to you: I will impose no identities upon you, but will invite you to become yourself without shame or fear. I will hold open a space for you in the world and defend your right to fill it with an authentic vocation. For as long as your search takes, you have my loyalty.”
