About Sonja

Sonja Orozco is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who helps people navigating stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and broader life transitions. She draws on five years of clinical experience to create individualized care, tailoring conversations and plans to each person’s particular needs and goals.

Background and approach

Her work addresses areas such as self-esteem, motivation, grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting and career concerns, as well as related challenges like attachment and communication difficulties. Sonja values a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate therapeutic stance, aiming to meet clients where they are while collaborating on practical strategies.

She integrates evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral techniques alongside attachment-based and client-centered approaches, and may also use elements of DBT and emotionally-focused work when appropriate. Sonja offers sessions in English from her Florida practice and uses a subscription model for scheduling; international clients are not accepted.

Prospective clients begin by selecting Start Therapy, completing a brief matching questionnaire, and scheduling according to availability.

How Sonja’s Approaches Work Online

Sonja commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety and depression. She also incorporates attachment-based ideas to explore how early relationship patterns shape current interactions and emotional responses, which can be useful for addressing intimacy, family, and communication issues.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Sonja collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their goals and preferences. She emphasizes a client-centered stance that adapts interventions over time so the plan reflects evolving needs and what feels most helpful to the person in therapy.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options allow people to engage in evidence-informed work from home or elsewhere, making it easier to fit regular sessions into busy schedules and to continue progress between meetings.
