Hello, my name is Sonia Díaz, and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist working with clients all over California via telehealth. It is my passion to support others as they seek to better their lives and bring about wellness in many different areas. My approach is holistic in nature and client-centered. In this way, we can incorporate an integrative and humanistic approach that respects, validates, and supports your individual goals. I work with very diverse groups of people, whether ethnically, racially, gender, age, sexual identity, relationship or family style, etc. This perspective and experience have been the key to allowing me to support individuals on their journey, be that with a life transition, loss, trauma, systemic, relational, or many other personal challenges we face. Listening to your experiences and needs, understanding their specific context and the unique meanings they hold in your life is a key part of building our therapeutic alliance. Are you ready to get started? I am. After decades as a teacher and then a school counselor, I expanded my reach as a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. Helping people individually grew naturally from my previous roles... wanting to be able to provide more one-on-one time to someone in need spoke to me, and I continue to be honored and humbled with each and every session. As an experienced counselor and therapist, I offer a safe space to explore issues that are important to you and yours (past, present, and future). Being heard, understood, and seen are some of the most important experiences in our lives. I offer empathy and compassion for your journey as well as support and assistance as you continue to define and move toward increased wellness in all areas. What next? Well, I am looking so forward to hearing from you, meeting you, and ultimately working together to support your goals. Be they personal, relational, familial, or within another group or system.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with five years of experience working as a psychotherapist, with extensive experience in crisis work. I have worked with clients with a wide range of challenges, including depression, self harm, suicidal ideation, anxiety, auditory and visual hallucinations, relationship issues, parenting problems, Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical and sexual trauma or emotional abuse. I have spent the last 5 years working with adults, children and adolescents. My counseling style is relaxed, inviting and always transparent. I understand that making the decision to come to therapy can sometimes feel scary and overwhelming, I will always start where you are at, and never assume what you need. I want our time together to feel like team work, as we both work together to get you where you want to be. I come from a psychodynamic background, while pulling in different interventions from techniques ranging from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapist (DBT), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)/Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Person-Centered Therapy, Brief Goal Directed Therapy, Short Term Psychodynamic Therapy, and Trauma Focused-CBT. I will work with you to find the best technique or techniques which fit your needs best! The fact that you are here, means you have done the hardest part, which is asking for support and finally taking the leap into therapy. I am so excited to have the opportunity to work with you and work together to make changes, one step at a time!
