Sonia Vasquez

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am a client-centered therapist and focus on my client's strengths. Typically, I have been able to assist clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, family and/or work conflicts, end-of-life, and chronic illness.

I have worked with adults whose ages range from 18 - 90, transitional-age youth, adults, and older adults needing support through life changes, chronic illness, and end-of-life.

Social work has always been an interest of mine. I have seen family members and close friends go through life struggles and wish they had more professional support. I decided to make this my career. I enjoy meeting people and listening to their stories, and I am always happy to provide support and resources.
