Before joining Accord, she worked as a social worker at McLean Hospital in Belmont, Mass., for close to eight years, where she was the lead social worker in an inpatient unit specializing in bipolar and psychotic disorders, and was later promoted to director of admissions for a residential-treatment program. Sophie was also the recipient of a Pillars of Excellence Award for expertise collaborating across the system while working at McLean. She maintains a successful private practice that provides therapy and case-management services and also has experience working in a county jail developing and facilitating a therapy group for incarcerated young males and military veterans. She is also a board member for a professional dance company and a strong believer in the benefits of movement and exercise for mental wellness.  Her passion for providing an overarching approach to wellness that goes beyond therapy and medications matches the values of Accord, and Sophie is excited to lead this new company on the frontier of expanding mental health-care options.
