I'll help you connect with your strengths and do things that may feel scary or out of reach. My style is warm, creative, and authentic; I want you to feel comfortable showing up as you are, whether that means joking around or saying difficult things. I’ll get to know your world—what interests and matters to you—and use that to shape our work together, so each step feels connected to your real life. I also have experience treating trauma and working with LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities.

Why our members love working with Sonia
R.B.
Sonia is such a thoughtful and wonderful therapist! She really is down to earth and understanding as well as able to help me make a good ERP plan to tackle my ocd. I have never felt so prepared to deal with my ocd as I have with Sonia and I appreciate her knowledge that she brings. Sonia is really considerate of her patients as well and im just lucky to have her as my therapist on my journey
