Sophie Fourniquet, MD
Dr. Sophie Fourniquet is a board-certified psychiatrist. She earned her medical degree from Louisiana State University in New Orleans and completed her psychiatry residency at Duke University. She has practiced in both inpatient and outpatient settings and brings experience in neuropsychiatry, interventional psychiatry, transplant psychiatry, and culturally informed global psychiatry. Her clinical approach emphasizes evidence-based psychopharmacology with careful, personalized prescribing.
Dr. Fourniquet works collaboratively with patients to define clear, values-aligned treatment goals. She prioritizes honesty, transparency, and shared decision-making, creating a therapeutic relationship grounded in trust. Her care focuses on improving real-world functioning, clarity of thought, and emotional sustainability rather than symptom reduction alone.
Initial evaluations focus on understanding each patient’s story, treatment history, and goals through a thorough diagnostic assessment. Dr. Fourniquet avoids premature labeling, instead using early visits to develop a thoughtful plan aligned with patients’ values. Treatment plans are individualized and may include psychotherapy, medication, lifestyle modifications, or a combination, with regular reassessment to support durable, meaningful change.
