More about Sonia

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in the state of Texas. I have been in the mental health field for over 5 years specializing in Crisis Counseling. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, substance use, Bipolar disorder, OCD, Schizophrenia and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I also have experience with children and adolescents from ages 5 to 17 years old.

My counseling style is mostly non-directive. and compassionate I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and DBT. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Sonia has been great. She makes the process seem less intimidating. I was so nervous when I first began therapy, but she definitely made me feel at ease. She's attentive and responds quickly.
