Sophie Santolaria

Having spent over a decade living in various cities in the United Kingdom, including Manchester, Glasgow, and Edinburgh, I now call Montpellier home. My extensive travels and diverse living experiences have provided me with a deep understanding of the challenges faced by expatriates and individuals navigating different cultures. This unique perspective allows me to offer tailored support to those living in various countries with diverse cultural backgrounds. As a therapist, my commitment extends to providing an inclusive space for everyone, with a particular focus on the LGBTQI+ community. I aim to create an environment where individuals can comfortably explore their authentic selves, navigate identity, and address challenges with sensitivity and respect for diverse experiences. In addition to my therapeutic role, I am a trained Yin Yoga and Restorative Yoga teacher. This holistic approach, informed by both personal and professional experiences, allows me to tailor support for individuals dealing with various issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. Fluent in both French and English, I offer support in-person in Montpellier and online. I am also excited to welcome new supervisees and collaborate with art therapy students, fostering a space for growth and learning.
