Sophia Karkouch

Sophia Karkouch holds that lasting change begins when people feel genuinely seen — not guided toward someone else’s idea of who they should be, but supported in returning to who they already are. As a Registered Clinical Counsellor based in Abbotsford, British Columbia, she works from a relational, person-centered foundation, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches shaped around each individual rather than applied to them. Her practice is grounded in trauma-informed and culturally aware perspectives, because she understands that every person arrives with a context that deserves to be understood.

Sophia works with children, teenagers, young adults, men, women, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, stress, major life transitions, abuse, parenting challenges, and family conflict. She brings particular care to the moments when people feel overwhelmed or unrecognizable to themselves — when the thread holding everything together feels thin.

For those who are uncertain whether counseling is the right step, Sophia offers a complimentary fifteen-minute phone consultation to answer questions and explore fit. Sessions are available in person and virtually.
