Sophia Barbara, MS, LPC-IT (she/her)
Licensed Professional Counselor-In Training+ Trauma (EMDR)
Hey There! Im Sophia,
I work with children, adults, and families who feel like their path in life doesn’t quite fit the usual mold. The ones navigating uncertainty, transition, or emotional overwhelm, often quietly, often alone.
As a counselor-in-training, I bring a thoughtful and compassionate presence to therapy. My work is grounded in trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing), while also honoring the connection between mind, body, and spirit. Therapy with me is collaborative and welcoming, a space where you can slow down, feel supported, and reconnect with your own inner wisdom.
I understand how isolating it can feel when your experience is different, when answers aren’t clear, or when life feels heavier than it should. Whether you’re an adult seeking support or a parent looking for care for your child, you don’t have to navigate it alone. We’ll work together to build clarity, resilience, and a sense of direction that feels true to you.
At Navigate, I’m part of a team that values accessible, whole-person care. I currently accept Medicaid (Straight Title 19, no HMO) and offer sliding-scale rates because support should be within reach.
If you’re considering therapy, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute Connection Meeting. It’s a chance to see if we’re a good fit and to take a first, supported step forward.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin.
