Getting to know Sofia Skinner

The provider is a “Licensed Social Worker" and is currently working under the supervision of a licensed practitioner.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My hope for my patients is that they feel they are safe and comfortable in sharing the most intimate details of their lives with me as a mental health professional, but also as a fellow human being. I take a humanistic approach in my work, always keeping in mind that patients who sit before me in sessions are so much more than a diagnosis or notes on a page. I want my patients to know that they can come exactly as they are and be accepted.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I believe therapy works best when it's real and relational. I'm present, authentic, and genuinely interested in understanding you and your story. I draw on different approaches (psychodynamic, narrative, and cognitive-behavioral work) based on what will actually help you. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe being yourself, where we can explore what's going on beneath the surface, and where you can move through your world with a better understanding of yourself and others.

    I get that figuring out insurance can feel confusing and overwhelming, especially when you're already dealing with stress or anxiety. That's why I accept most major insurance plans and have a team that handles the details for you. We'll check your coverage, explain your costs clearly, and help you understand your options, so you can focus on feeling better, not paperwork. Most patients pay $35 or less per psychiatry appointment, including copays and deductibles. Getting support shouldn't feel like another impossible task, and with us, it doesn't have to.
