About Sophia
Sophia Mas is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 30 years of experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, grief, trauma, relationship and family concerns, and issues with self-esteem and addiction. She also supports those coping with sleep or eating difficulties, parenting strain, bipolar mood issues, ADHD, and challenges that come with life changes.
She describes a practical, interactive, solution-focused style. Sessions tend to be direct and hands-on, using a mix of approaches to match what a person needs. Sophia draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at feelings and attachment patterns, and uses cognitive and acceptance-based methods to address thoughts and behaviors.
Her background includes work in emergency care, community mental health, and private practice. That range means she has experience with crisis-related situations as well as longer term concerns. She has worked with a diverse set of clients across many settings over three decades.
In sessions she listens closely and uses active techniques to help people name hard emotions and notice relationship patterns. She offers strategies for managing stress, improving communication, and coping with grief or loss. Where helpful, she blends ACT, CBT, client-centered, and attachment approaches alongside EFT.
Sophia provides services in English and Spanish and accepts international clients. She notes that her fees vary with location and that sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session are required.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people and couples name difficult emotions and notice how those feelings shape relationship patterns. It is often used when attachment wounds or recurring conflicts are part of the problem. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions guided by those values while learning to live with uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns with practical exercises and skills practice.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences and will collaborate on which methods to emphasize. This is a joint process where approaches can be combined or shifted as progress and needs become clearer.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t needed. Some formats also work better when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Practical considerations like these are discussed when arranging the first session so appointments fit everyday life.
