Sonia is great-- she is patient, funny, understands my concerns and lets me talk and not feel silly about my concerns. Has wonderful insight and has given me concrete things to try as well. My first experience with counseling is off to a great start with Sonia.

In the few times I’ve met with Sonia, I am so much more encouraged and relaxed. I can sleep 7-8 hours now whereas before I was only averaging 3-5 hours of sleep. Sonia patiently listens and helps me understand my own feelings so I can make better choices for myself. I am so grateful to her.

I've been using BetterHelp for a couple of months now and have been paired with other wonderful therapists before but I believe Sonia is the perfect fit for me. She has the expertise to help me with my sleeping problems and her insights have helped me a great deal.
I find my situation to have improved a great deal since I started my sessions with her. She offers practical and useful solutions to my problems, which I appreciate very much.
