About me

Sophire Nelson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and negative self-image. A North Carolina native, Sophire takes a holistic and client-centered approach to therapy, integrating evidence-based practices such as Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). She is also certified in the Safe and Sound Protocol—a listening-based intervention designed to help regulate the nervous system and reduce symptoms of anxiety and stress. Sophire is known for creating a warm, nurturing, and authentic therapeutic space where clients feel supported to explore the root causes of their challenges. She believes that healing involves both insight and action, combining psychodynamic exploration with practical tools like CBT, meditation, and relaxation strategies to promote emotional balance and everyday well-being. Psychoeducation is a core part of Sophire’s approach. She helps clients understand how their brains and bodies respond to stress and trauma, empowering them with knowledge that fosters a deeper sense of control, safety, and self-compassion. Her goal is to walk alongside clients as they rediscover their inner strength and move toward lasting healing.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

First sessions with me include us working alongside together to complete an initial diagnostic assessment. We will introduce ourselves while I share more about our new therapeutic and professional relationship. I allow room for questions that the client may have for me to ensure the clients needs are met.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths as a therapist lie in creating a warm, nurturing, and authentic therapeutic environment where clients feel safe to explore the deeper roots of their struggles. I use a psychodynamic approach to help clients gain insight into the underlying patterns driving their current concerns, while blending psychoeducation, CBT, and trauma-informed care to support practical growth and change. I intentionally go at a pace that feels comfortable for each individual, using gentle confrontation when appropriate to help clients move toward meaningful progress and reach their treatment goals. My goal is to foster a relaxed, collaborative atmosphere where clients feel both supported and challenged as they work toward healing and lasting transformation

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

She enjoys working with clients who are dedicated to living more mindful, empowered, and fulfilling lives. Her goal is to walk alongside clients as they shift from a place of chaos to one of clarity and peace—releasing what no longer serves them and stepping fully into their potential.
