- “Sonya listens well and has ideas for useful tools. Very empathetic.”
- “She makes it easy to talk to and she helps me see things I couldn’t see myself or helps me understand why I feel the way I do. She is amazing.”
- “Sonya is so great! She is an excellent listener, and validates my experiences while also helping me to recognize how my own emotions can play a part in them. She is very understanding, and it feels less like a therapy session, and more like talking with a friend. Our sessions have been eye-opening and extremely beneficial, and I highly recommend her to anyone searching for a relaxed and comfortable setting,”
- “She has such a keen sense of listening and understanding ! Also makes you feel so comfortable and free of judgement. I have the best therapist! :)”
- “I’ve only had a few sessions with Soya but she is amazing! I feel truly comfortable with her and know that she hears what I’m saying (and even maybe what I don’t realize I’m saying).”
