About Sophia

Sophia Mas is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 30 years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship strain, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She works with individuals, couples, and families on challenges ranging from mood disorders and personality-related concerns to parenting, career stress, and addiction. Her practice also addresses intimacy, self-esteem, eating and sleep difficulties, chronic illness and pain, and life transitions.

Sophia uses a practical, interactive, solution-oriented style that blends conventional therapies with adaptable techniques tailored to each person's needs. She draws from evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to help clients build coping skills, improve communication, and regain a sense of agency.

Fluent in English and Spanish, she has worked across settings including emergency care, community mental health, and independent practice in Florida. Sophia emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect, and aims to foster a collaborative therapeutic relationship that supports clients in moving toward greater wellbeing and practical change.

Approaches that guide flexible online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify personal values, and take committed steps toward a more meaningful life; it is often used for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and sleep or eating difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress, which can be useful for mood instability and relationship challenges.

Choosing the right approach is often a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to explore goals, preferences, and responses to different methods and adjust the plan as progress unfolds, making decisions together about which techniques to prioritize.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for varied schedules and geographic locations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while adapting sessions to what works best for the client, whether that means face-to-face video conversations or shorter, text-based check-ins between appointments.
