Sophia Pastore

Sophia Pastore

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Greenfield, MA


We all need connection, community, and the ability to be our authentic selves in order to thrive. Many of us are not provided these attachment needs in childhood, and we grow into adulthood burdened by this wounding, unsure of how to relate safely and from a place of wholeness. If you struggle to align your inner and outer worlds, find yourself repeating difficult relational patterns, or feel as if your authentic self must remain hidden, I would love to work with you. I am particularly interested in supporting the health of queer families and cooperatives.

Therapist

I am a bilingual Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor I (LADC I) with extensive experience supporting adolescents, adults, and families navigating substance use, mental health concerns, trauma, life transitions, and other personal challenges. I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself without judgment while working toward meaningful and lasting change.

My professional background includes work in behavioral health, substance use treatment, co-occurring disorders, crisis intervention, detoxification, and education. I have experience providing individual and group counseling and supporting individuals with challenges related to anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, emotional regulation, relationships, and recovery.

I take a person-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive approach to therapy. I believe that every person brings their own strengths, experiences, culture, and goals into the therapeutic process. Together, we will work to better understand what is getting in the way of the life you want and develop practical tools to help you move forward.

I am bilingual in English and Spanish and welcome clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. Whether you are seeking support for recovery, emotional wellness, stress, relationships, or a major life transition, my goal is to help you feel heard, empowered, and supported.
