Sophia has been great throughout my therapy journey. She got me from day 1 and has helped me progress through ups and downs and help me start to heal behaviours I’ve had for 20 years. I’ve worked with her now for nearly 3 years. She’s incredibly patient when I’ve had struggles financially and has been helpful in so many ways to bring me up levels in life Very grateful for the experience
More about Sophia
- 13 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I have been a licensed psychotherapist, Marriage and Family Therapist, in Hawaii since 2008. I have maintained a private practice on Oahu where I work with individuals, couples, families and groups to overcome challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, anger, adjustment, relationships and parenting issues . I have spent over nine years working with all branches of military on bases overseas and stateside providing care for service members with trauma, deployment, reintegration, anger and relationship issues.
Through out my life I have been active with horses, snowboarding, mountain biking and surfing and therefore developed a special interest in peak performance. Over the last five years I have been working with athletes to enhance their physical and mental performance in efforts to achieve a specific goal, which has been exciting and very rewarding for me. I feel it is truly an honor and gift to support people in being all they can be and in actualizing their dreams.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Sophia has always open up my perspective when life gets tough and she teaches me tools to maneuver my path in life. When I am having a tough time, she gives me confidence and supports me by giving me ways to relieve my pain and stress.
Sophia is compassionate and is always ensuring you’re okay.
I met Sophia in a time where I was lost and depressed to a point where I didn't know which way was up from that point on. She was my outlet in my darkest days. She is such a kind-spirited person that is so optimistic. She makes me feel like I am doing my best even though I feel like I'm not. She is the person I turn to when things get tough. I highly recommend her.
Sophia has been great in my counselling journey so far. It's been important that I've worked with someone who understands me and is able to offer guidance and the right questions to progress and develop, I feel a diffrent person in less than 6 months of sessions. It has been fantastic
I really like Sophia, she is so easy to communicate with and has such a wonderful, caring spirit. I highly recommend her.
Sophia is helping me focus on my personal goals.
Sophia is very good at tailoring our sessions for what will be most helpful for my progress. She's a great listener, and always asks questions that challenge my assumptions and help me better understand my own tendencies.
