HOLISTIC  PSYCHOTHERAPY

With Sophie Nickoll, AMFT & APCC

Hi, I’m Sophie

a registered clinical counselor providing therapy virtually to residents of California and in person in Pasadena, CA

  • What is “holistic psychotherapy” mean? To me, working holistically means I approach therapy from the understanding that everything - our minds, bodies, emotions, communities, and the natural world - are all connected. I work with the whole person and aim to help my clients thrive emotionally, spiritually, and physically. To feel vitality and purpose in life, all our systems must be working in harmony. Therefore, in addition to traditional psychotherapy interventions such as psychodynamic approaches and parts work, I use somatic, body-based interventions, and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, which can commonly help people connect to the divine.

    Work with me

  • I see clients in-person in Pasadena, CA. I also see clients virtually who reside anywhere in California.

  • My individual therapy sessions are $175. Couples sessions are $200. Ketamine session pricing depends on our agreed treatment plan. I also offer a number of sliding scale spots. Preference is given to people who identify as queer or BIPOC, and immigrants and single moms. Please reach out for a free consultation if you want more information regarding pricing for ketamine therapy, or to inquire about sliding scale.

  • If you are looking for a therapist, finding the right fit is the most important first step! If you think we may be a fit, I would love to connect for a free consultation to get to know each other. See my contact page for information on how to connect, or email me at therapy@sophienickoll.com to schedule a consult.

  • I am an both a APCC (Associate Professional Clinical Counselor) and an AMFT (Associate Marriage and Family Therapist). I also am a certified Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapist through Journey Clinical, a partner of the Integrative Psychiatry Institute (IPI).

  • I use imagery from nature, particularly the ocean, to represent the healing and cleansing process of therapy - akin to swimming in ocean waters. I believe healing involves realignment with our true nature and the natural world. Photos are my own or come from the following sources: Pexel, UnSlpash, Squarespace.
