Sophie Paquette, LCSW, CSW

Sophie Paquette is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Clinical Social Worker (CSW) practicing in South Carolina with nine years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship strain, family and parenting concerns, and compassion fatigue. Sophie also focuses on related areas such as adoption and foster care, body image, domestic violence, PTSD, and issues affecting young adults and women.

Sophie uses straightforward conversation and practical tools in sessions. She emphasizes that clients know their own stories and that they already have strengths to draw on. In practice she helps people identify what’s getting in the way, try new ways of coping, and track small changes that add up.

Her approach pulls from client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral ideas. That means Sophie listens first, then works with each person to test out different ways of thinking and behaving that can reduce distress. Solution-focused elements guide shorter-term goals and steps to move forward.

Sophie also incorporates trauma-focused work when past events are affecting current life. She concentrates on helping people manage symptoms and rebuild a sense of control after traumatic experiences. Sessions are pragmatic and paced to each person’s needs.

People who contact Sophie can expect clear communication about goals and strategies. She encourages realistic steps for parenting strain, family problems, and life transitions. The focus is on usable skills and steady progress rather than quick fixes.
