Let’s talk about it
Therapy with Sofia
Therapy for people who want to feel better understood in their relationships.
I will help you clarify your priorities and build new habits. Together, we will work on turning down the volume on perfectionism, people-pleasing, negative self-talk, and other ways of thinking, being, and doing that may no longer serve you.
Meet Sofia
Sofia Rivkin-Haas, LCSW
I am a licensed clinical social worker based in Brooklyn, NY with nearly a decade of experience in the field. I work with adults, couples, and families navigating relational difficulties, substance misuse, and life-cycle transitions. Prior to starting my private practice, I was a hospital social worker; in this capacity, I bore witness to much human suffering as well as astonishing resilience. The time I spent, in both inpatient and outpatient medical settings, supporting the chronically ill and those facing end of life continues to inform my work. I maintain a special interest in partnering with clients facing medical challenges as well as with clients who identify as health care providers themselves.
Therapy Services
Individual Therapy
Are you yearning to deepen relationships, trying to balance too much as a working parent, or seeking a way out of self-defeating patterns of behavior? Or perhaps you are facing a huge change that has you feeling so worried about the future that you find living in the present unbearable. You don’t have to face it all alone.
Couples Therapy
Do you feel misunderstood by your partner and unable to break the cycle of all-too-familiar arguments? Perhaps you’re feeling defeated because you and your partner can’t seem to get on the same page about how to complete simple tasks like washing the dishes, so it’s no wonder that discussions about parenting or money go from 0-100 in no time flat. Couples therapy can offer you and your partner (or co-parent) a space to have a different experience of each other.
Family Therapy
Having difficulty setting boundaries with your parents? Feeling as though you revert to being a frightened little kid or a petulant teen whenever you visit home despite all these years of working on yourself? Consider going straight to the source of who you are: your family (the very people who have shaped you and continue to shape you).
“My style is warm as well as direct, and I often use humor and metaphor to connect with my clients.”
