She has always been fascinated by understanding the human mind and specialized in the topic of aggression prevention during her studies and prior work.

Her art is especially informed by humanistic and holistic psychology as well as mindfulness and Loving-Kindness practices. sophia writes and performs on topics of self-worth, self-actualization, healing, and compassion.
