Sociotherapy is a transdisciplinary partnership approach to addressing social and mental health concerns, wellness, and the struggles people experience. It is a holistic, sociology-informed clinical practice that attends to the whole person within the full context of their lived situation. Grounded in an understanding of the dynamic interdependence between individuals, communities, social structures, and the environment, Sociotherapy emphasizes that human experience is relationally constituted. These interwoven relational systems together form each client's relational ground—the dynamic field within which self, experience, agency, and transformation emerge.

Sociotherapy is an evidence-based practice that promotes well-being through relational interventions and partnership. It does not pathologize human struggle and suffering but instead recognizes the normal diversity of human experience and functioning, personal traits and characteristics.
