Who was Saint Sophie?
Dr. Emmet M. Kenney, Jr. is a psychiatrist and the founder of Saint Sophie’s Psychiatric Clinic. He named the clinic after Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat (b.1779- d.1865), who dedicated her life to the health and education of young people. While there is no religious affiliation, Saint Sophie’s Psychiatric Clinic is proud to carry on the tradition of living in service for others and caring for people in need.
