Sophie Gluzkater, LCSW — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Sophie!

Are you dealing with transitions in life? Do you experience anxiety when facing a new day? I empower my client to seek solutions in partnership with me. I am a psychotherapist licensed in Texas with 30 years of professional experience. Warmth, empathy, and knowledge are what define me as a therapist.

My focus

Dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or going through a life transition? I'll help you develop coping skills and will create, together with you, personalized treatment goals.

My approach

My approach is humanistic and is client-centered. I'm usually interactive and include you in planning the treatment.

My communication style

I've been told that I'm easy to talk to. My style is interactive and compassionate. I tend to engage my clients in the process of therapy where they feel supported and safe.

My journey to mental healthcare

I came to become a therapist by way of my first career as a biochemist working with oncology clients. Our conversations led me to acquire better knowledge and skills to deal with human suffering. I've been a therapist for over 30 years now and never felt more fulfilled and satisfied with my job.

Our first session

During our first session, I usually focus on establishing a connection. I would want some information about their background, symptoms, and expectations. I encourage my clients to ask me questions if they have any.
