“Sonia is refreshing because it genuinely feels like you‚Äôre talking to a friend. It feels like I‚Äôve known her for ages and every time we talk, it‚Äôs as if time never passed. She helps me see both sides of every story and to never act maliciously. Whatever I have going on, I‚Äôve learned to approach everything with peace and give people the benefit of the doubt. With her help, I can now express my true feelings without regret. She‚Äôs brought out confidence in me I never knew I had.”

Getting to know Sonia Vasquez
My name is Sonia Vasquez, and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). I am a client-centered therapist who focuses on my clients’ strengths. I have assisted clients struggling with anxiety, depression, family and/or work conflicts, end of life, and chronic illness.
My approach
I utilize a strengths-based, client-centered approach and incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy.
My focus
In the past 5–10 years, I have worked with adults aged 18 to 90. I support transitional age youth, adults, and older adults through life changes, chronic illness, and end of life.
My communication style
I work with clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I have a relaxed, easygoing style and allow clients to express themselves comfortably.
My journey to therapy
Social work has always been an interest and way of life for me. My parents were the first called when family or friends needed help. I have seen family members and friends face struggles and wished they had more professional support. Various jobs taught me about helping others cope with life. I pursued this as a career, earning my Master’s in Social Work at California State University, Long Beach, and becoming a licensed clinical social worker. I enjoy meeting people and listening to their stories. If I can help, I am happy to provide support and resources. Being a social worker is a 24/7 role, which I love!
