About Sophia

Sophia Resciniti is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York with 15 years of experience. She focuses on practical support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, and anger. Her approach centers on respectful, compassionate care that meets each person where they are. She uses a mix of therapeutic styles to fit individual needs. Sophia leans on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful patterns and on acceptance and commitment principles to help people move toward what matters to them. She also draws from attachment-based and client-centered approaches to strengthen emotional understanding and build trusting conversations. Sessions are collaborative. Sophia works with clients to shape the dialog and a treatment plan that reflects their goals and daily life. She emphasizes clear, straightforward steps people can try between sessions to test what helps. Her background includes a broad range of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, such as relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stresses, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people facing grief, hospice or end-of-life questions, and recovery after disasters or violence. Sophia offers therapy in English and Greek. To begin, people select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting controlled by them, then take small actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete strategies to change patterns that cause distress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental conversation where the therapist listens closely and follows the client's pace to build understanding. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to test different ways of working and adjust based on goals and preferences. This makes it easier to tailor exercises, pacing, and homework so they fit the person's life. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. In general, online therapy can make it simpler to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people continue care while managing daily responsibilities, since sessions can be scheduled around work or family routines rather than requiring extra commute time.
