Sophia Resciniti, LCSW

Sophia Resciniti is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New York with 15 years of experience. She focuses on thoughts and everyday habits that shape how people cope with stress, anxiety, and life changes. Sophia aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where people can begin to make changes that matter to them.

Sophia works with people facing grief, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also supports those dealing with addiction, bipolar disorder, panic, and obsessive or compulsive patterns. Relationship strain, intimacy questions, parenting stress, and career concerns are part of her practice as well.

Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sophia uses methods like cognitive behavioral ideas and acceptance-based strategies to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different ways of relating to thoughts and feelings. She also draws on attachment-focused and existential perspectives to understand relationship patterns and life meaning.

Sophia adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person’s needs. She emphasizes small, practical steps people can take between sessions to shift habits and reduce distress. She speaks English and Greek and practices in New York.

People who choose Sophia often want straightforward help sorting their priorities and coping strategies. She aims to support and empower them as they try new approaches and build more sustainable daily routines.

How Sophia’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck by them, then move toward values-based actions that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact and teaches practical strategies to shift unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional responses and helps people try different ways of connecting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sophia will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that fit their goals, needs, and day-to-day life. She adapts the plan over time, checking in about what helps and what doesn’t.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to keep continuity of care during life transitions or when juggling work and family demands. Ask about available session formats when you schedule so arrangements match your routine and preferences.
