About Dr Sofia Likhacheva
Dr Sofia Likhacheva is a Counselling Psychologist and Integrative Psychotherapist at Schoen Clinic Chelsea, offering a compassionate, trauma-informed approach rooted in psychoanalytic and attachment-based principles. Dr Likhacheva provides a safe, confidential space for clients to explore the impact of past events on their present relationships and sense of self.
