Sofia Larraz

Sofia Larraz is a licensed clinical social worker with 40 years of experience helping people facing major life shifts and relationship strain. She works with concerns like addictions, stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and challenges around intimacy and parenting. Sofia speaks English and Spanish and sees clients from her Florida practice.

She focuses on treating people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Conversations are shaped to fit each person's situation. Sofia tailors sessions and any plan to the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.

In sessions she listens closely and follows the pace the client sets. She draws on client-centered ideas to make room for each person's values and goals. When relationship patterns matter, she uses elements of the Gottman Method to look at communication and connection.

Sofia often helps people struggling with control issues, attachment worries, and career or life-purpose questions. She also supports those coping with trauma, compassion fatigue, and the emotional impact of divorce or separation. Her work includes attention to multicultural concerns and women's issues.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation about next steps and practical goals. Sofia encourages small, manageable changes that fit daily life. For people facing transitions, she offers steady support while helping them find clearer direction and greater self-compassion.

How Sofia's Approaches Shape Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person's own goals and values. A therapist who uses this approach listens, reflects, and helps people clarify what matters to them. It can be useful for stress, life transitions, and building self-esteem.

The Gottman Method focuses on practical ways to improve communication and reduce conflict in relationships. It looks at interaction patterns and teaches skills for more positive conversations and greater emotional connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sofia will help figure out which methods fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
