Sonya Belletti

Sonya Belletti is a licensed clinical social worker with 26 years of experience helping people navigate relationship and life changes. She practices in Florida and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, career questions, and parenting challenges. Sonya aims to create a calm, practical space where people can talk through what matters most to them.

She trained in psychology at Syracuse University and completed her Master of Social Work at San Jose State University with a clinical focus on child and family issues. Over the years she has worked in private practice, community settings, and schools, bringing a range of real-world experience to each session.

Sonya uses approaches rooted in attachment work, client-centered care, and cognitive behavioral techniques. She commonly blends these with mindfulness practices and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship concerns arise. Sessions focus on clear, achievable steps and on building skills people can use between meetings.

People often seek her help for relationship strain, parenting and blended family challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, fertility and fatherhood concerns, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those dealing with ADHD, intimacy issues, anger, and feelings of emptiness or guilt.

In sessions Sonya listens first, then helps clients set goals and try practical strategies. She frames therapy as collaborative coaching and problem solving, helping people find their voice and stronger ways to cope and connect.

Approaches that guide online care and goal-setting

Sonya often draws on attachment-based approaches that look at how early connections shape current relationships; this helps when working through commitment, intimacy, or family-of-origin concerns. She also uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around the goals the client brings. Cognitive behavioral therapy, when used, helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sonya will discuss how these methods might fit the client's goals and preferences. She treats the selection of techniques as a collaborative decision and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on a lunch break or longer sessions when needed. It can also make sessions more accessible when school, work, or caregiving schedules are tight. Licensed professionals tailor pacing and homework to what fits a person's routine rather than promising any single outcome.
