Sophia Caruso, MS

Mental Health Counselor

Hi, I’m Sophia. I offer therapy services at our Shadyside clinic.

I am a master’s-level counselor working under clinical supervision as I pursue licensure. I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed, drawing from evidence-based practices to meet your unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel empowered to explore challenges, build resilience, and create meaningful change.

I use a person-centered, trauma-informed approach to help clients better understand themselves, develop coping skills, and navigate challenges. Drawing from CBT, mindfulness, and strengths-based techniques, I tailor therapy to each client’s unique goals and needs.

Seeking support takes courage. Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Therapy is a space to show up exactly as you are, and I look forward to supporting your growth and being part of your journey.
