Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
LMFT #107077 Exp 6/30/2026
Sonia is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC), and Clinical Supervisor with extensive experience supporting couples, families, individuals through personal, professional, and relational challenges. Her work is rooted in promoting resilience, emotional well-being, and authentic connection across the lifespan.
Sonia offers support to a wide range of clients that include Couples, Families, parents and young children. She specializes in helping individuals navigate life transitions, ADHD, trauma, mental health concerns, as well as relational or familial disconnection. She has particular expertise in working with couples and with parent-infant bonding and in supporting families with young children (ages 0–7) experiencing behavioral and emotional dysregulation due to developmental, mental health, trauma-related, or life-stage challenges.
Her therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. Drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), Sonia integrates a holistic understanding of the mind-body connection and roots her work in humanistic, existential, and culturally responsive approaches.
Sonia’s approach is deeply informed by her own lived experience as an immigrant and a parent. Having navigated cultural transitions and identity shifts firsthand, she brings deep empathy and insight to clients facing similar challenges. She is attuned to the impact of cultural identity, intergenerational dynamics, and societal pressures, and she tailors her care to align with each client’s unique background, values, and worldview.
With a diverse clinical background—including work in intensive outpatient programs, elementary and high schools, and private practice—Sonia combines clinical depth with a rich understanding of both corporate environments and international living. This blend of professional and personal experience allows her to connect authentically with individuals from all walks of life and to offer care that is both effective and deeply human.
