About

Sophia Russell, is a Marriage & Family Therapist-Associate, a certified life skills coach, and a mindful meditation practitioner. I am also a woman who has faced life difficulties firsthand, and providing therapeutic support to others is my passion. Through my own healing journey I have learned effective life management skills and felt compelled to assist others on their paths. My educational background includes a bachelor’s degree in psychology from California State University, Los Angeles, and a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University. Currently, I am licensed by the state of Texas and under the supervision of Dr. Russ Bartee, Ph.D., LMFT-S, LPC-S. Marriage & Family Therapy is a systemic approach that delves into how our interpersonal relationships greatly influence our behaviors, decisions, and how we address challenges. With empathy, compassion, and a deep sense of understanding, I am committed to helping people realize their inner strength. I firmly believe that regardless of our past experiences, we all possess the ability to succeed & be happy. In our sessions, I will strive to establish an authentic therapeutic bond that fosters self-exploration, independence, and personal empowerment. My goal is to guide you in gaining deeper insight into yourself and the dynamics of your relationships. Together, we will tailor sessions to align with your objectives, working collaboratively towards achieving them. I am dedicated to providing you with the highest level of care, continuously enhancing my knowledge and skills, and serving as your therapist to motivate and assist you on your journey towards a brighter, more fulfilling future.
