Meet Dr.Sophia Maurasse, MD
Massachusetts Psychiatry — solo private practice
Board-Certified in Psychiatry - Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist
Dr. Sophia Maurasse is a board-certified psychiatrist providing care for adolescents, young adults, and adults across Massachusetts. She trained in general psychiatry and child & adolescent psychiatry, bringing both clinical expertise and lived perspective to her work. Her approach combines careful diagnostic thinking, evidence-based treatments, and a practical, supportive style to help patients regain balance and thrive in daily life.
Clinical Focus & Approach
Good treatment starts with listening. Dr. Sophia Maurasse begins with a thorough diagnostic evaluation and collaborates with patients to create personalized plans that fit their goals and lifestyles. Treatment may include psychotherapy, medication, or a combination of both. She takes a holistic approach, considering sleep, nutrition, activity, relationships, and medical factors, recognizing their significant impact on mental health.
Dr. Maurasse employs trauma-responsive and skills-based methods, drawing on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) principles, cognitive-behavioral strategies, mindfulness, and exposure techniques when appropriate. Medications are prescribed thoughtfully and collaboratively—not as a shortcut, but as a tool to support therapy and daily functioning.
Who Does Psychiatry Massachusetts Treat?
Dr. Sophia Maurasse sees patients ages 12–65 for a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma-related issues, mood disorders (including bipolar spectrum conditions), and complex or multi-diagnostic presentations. She has experience caring for adolescents with self-injurious behavior and for patients whose psychiatric and medical needs intersect.
