About us

 

Meet your provider

Hi, I’m Sophie Mallari, LHMC. I’m passionate about helping my clients process their emotions, gain insight, strengthen their coping skills, and heal from the effects of trauma. My clinical approach is guided by REBT, Inner-Child Work, and trauma-informed care. Additionally, I am trained in EMDR, a therapy modality for trauma recovery.

I was born and raised in Manhattan, New York. After earning my Bachelor’s degree in Operations Management, I pursued a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Alliance University where I was trained to counsel through a multicultural and holistic perspective that takes into consideration the client’s biological, psychological, sociological, and spiritual needs. As a 2nd generation Asian American I understand the difficulties with being a part of two cultures while simultaneously trying to navigate difficult family dynamics.

When I’m not exploring new patterns of thinking and behaving, my time is spent cooking, baking, organizing and decorating my home, and spending quality time with my friends.

OUR VALUES

Directness

Warmth

Collaboration

  • Sophie is the best therapist I've been to - she's empathetic, insightful and gave me the tools to manage my stress and anxiety on my own. I have made leaps and bounds through my work with her and being able to manage my anxiety so it wasn't so crippling has been priceless. I could not recommend Sophie more highly and would work with her again in a heartbeat.

  • Therapy with Sophie feels like talking to someone who just gets it. She’s warm, relatable, and gently honest in a way that makes you feel safe enough to dig deep. I never feel judged, and I always leave with something meaningful to think about. She’s helped me navigate relationship issues, anxiety, and some tough inner critic stuff, and I’ve come out feeling stronger. She’s the kind of therapist who makes real, lasting change possible.

  • Sophie has a way of making you feel truly seen, even when you’re struggling to see yourself clearly. She’s incredibly kind and down-to-earth, which made it easy to open up from day one. I’ve worked with therapists before, but Sophie has this calming presence that feels different in a good way. Her questions are thoughtful, and her insights come from a place of deep understanding. I’ve grown so much in our time together and feel more grounded and self-aware than I ever have.
