Dr. Sophie Guellati-Salcedo is a health psychologist, hypnotherapist and quantum healing practitioner with over 25 years of experience. After earning her degree in France, she moved to Miami as a Fulbright scholar to further her research in Health Psychology/Behavioral Medicine, a discipline concerned with understanding how biology, behavior, and social context influence health and illness.
Early on, she developed a specific interest in the study of psychological factors of resilience and dispositional traits such as optimism, coping styles, and personality measured in health relevant contexts. Interacting with medically-ill patients, she preferred to identify and strengthen their resources and assess their social support network, rather than focusing on their symptoms, weaknesses, or limitations. This perspective permeates through her clinical work today.
At the University of Miami, her research focused on the use of cognitive-behavioral and stress-management techniques to enhance coping skills and emotional well-being in women with early-stage breast cancer. Her study emphasized the importance of skill building and social functioning to promote wellbeing. She further explored the field of psychoneuroimmunology, or the study of the interaction between psychological processes and the nervous and immune systems of the human body, as it applies to the understanding of chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia.
In the last phase of her clinical training, Dr. Guellati-Salcedo was able to integrate different theoretical orientations and spiritual insights to clinical skills. Her integrative approach included psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, systemic, and schema-focused therapy, as well as stress management and relaxation techniques. In addition, she received practical and formal training in hypnotherapy.
From 2004 to 2020, she conducted psychoeducational, neuropsychological, and personality assessments to detect giftedness, learning disabilities, Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder, and/or psychiatric conditions in adults and children (first grade and up). She additionally conducts evaluations specifically geared to fulfill advanced requirements of graduate level requests for accommodations for standardized testing such as the GRE, GMAT, MCAT or LSAT.
In 2020, Sophie expanded her practice to embrace a Mind-Body-Spirit approach, incorporating Quantum Healing techniques. She integrates her clinical expertise with a deeper exploration of how energy, consciousness, and frequency impact wellness. Sophie’s use of Quantum Healing Hypnosis empowers individuals to explore different levels of consciousness, facilitating profound personal healing and transformation.
In 2021, she introduced Quantum Biofeedback into her practice, using advanced biofeedback technology and sound frequencies to harmonize the body’s energy systems. By tapping into energetic rebalancing, she helps clients detoxify at a cellular level and release blocked energy, supporting them in overcoming physical and emotional challenges.
Sophie’s holistic, integrative approach is deeply rooted in her belief that true healing requires addressing the mind, body, and spirit as a unified whole. She utilizes her vast expertise in psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral techniques while complementing these with the energetic healing practices she’s adopted. Her personalized sessions are designed to meet the specific needs of each client, supporting them in their journey toward balance and wellness.
Originally from Paris, Sophie is bi-cultural and bilingual in French and English, offering her services globally via remote sessions. With an in-depth understanding of diverse cultures, she is particularly sensitive to the unique challenges faced by those navigating cultural transitions.
Before pursuing psychology, Sophie earned a master’s degree in business administration and worked in the corporate world, giving her a unique perspective on helping individuals manage life stressors and transitions.
Today, Sophie’s Quantum Healing and Quantum Biofeedback practices are integral to her mission of helping clients achieve lasting emotional, mental, and physical well-being.
