Sonja Choi Heifetz

Everyone has the essential ingredients for transformation. Clients are seen through the balanced lens of their greatest potential and challenges. Clients who seek my support are at an intersection in life; seeking balance and resolution between internal and external expectations found in their relationships, family, identity, career, society, etc. I support clients in peeling back the layers of themselves - to gain a deeper and broader perspective on who they are and who they want to become. BIPOC and multicultural individuals in particular benefit from this lens. I am person-centered, somatic-focused, feminist practitioner whose approach is both practical and deepening. While adept at solution-oriented and behavior-change approaches, I also integrate mind/body strategies, neurobiology, psychodynamic, Gestalt, and post-modern approaches. In other words, clients who work with me gain a variety of useful and meaningful tools for immediate and long-term problems. My personal style is rooted in authenticity and immediacy. Experiences in the therapeutic relationship give insight into the true nature of you. I will also encourage you to learn about yourself in the places where you feel uncomfortable. We will use those moments to create tools, narratives, tolerance for discomfort, resolution, awareness, and compassion.
