Hi, I’m Soraya Wilder

I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with a wealth of experience guiding individuals in recognizing and overcoming their challenges. My approach is holistic, integrating mind, body, and spirit to help individuals tap into their inherent strengths and resilience. I aim to equip them with new coping skills to navigate future obstacles with confidence.

My primary goal is to foster a sense of centeredness and equanimity, empowering individuals to maintain their balance even in the midst of adversity. I specialize in enhancing quality of life, nurturing relationships, and facilitating growth through difficult experiences.

My areas of expertise encompass a wide range, including relationship dynamics, teens issues, women’s issue, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, sexual health, and ADHD coaching. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to connect with you and support you on your journey.

Embarking on the path to becoming a therapist has been a journey deeply intertwined with my own personal growth. Just like the individuals I support, I’m no stranger to the spectrum of human experiences – from the joys to the challenges that mold us.

From a tender age, I felt a calling towards the field of therapy, yet it was only with hindsight that I grasped the underlying motivation. It dawned on me that my attraction to this profession stemmed from a profound quest for personal healing. This realization sparked a transformative journey of self-exploration and introspection.

As I delved into the depths of my own psyche, I unearthed insights and truths that not only enriched my own life but also exponentially enhanced my capacity to aid others on their paths to healing and growth. This self-work has become an integral part of my therapeutic approach, allowing me to connect with empathy, understanding, and authenticity.

Being a therapist is a privilege I hold dear. There’s an undeniable joy in accompanying individuals on their journeys toward positive transformation and witnessing the profound impact it has on their lives.

The true reward lies in observing the metamorphosis that occurs within those I work with. Witnessing someone shed the weight of their burdens, embrace newfound freedom, and radiate enthusiasm for life is immensely gratifying. It’s these moments of liberation and empowerment that reaffirm the profound significance of my role as a guide and facilitator of change.

Those who know me often commend me for my attentive listening skills and my capacity to make others feel genuinely heard, seen, and understood. It’s this ability that I believe forms the cornerstone of my approach to facilitating healing. I possess a natural knack for aiding individuals in identifying and articulating their emotions, enabling them to construct fresh narratives that empower their healing journey.

Bringing warmth and understanding to every session is not just a duty but a genuine passion of mine. I harbor a sincere interest in the stories, struggles, and triumphs of each individual I have the privilege to work with. By fostering an atmosphere of empathy and compassion, I aim to create a safe space where clients feel truly heard, valued, and supported as they embark on their journey towards healing and growth.

During our sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to prioritize your own well-being without any sense of guilt or selfishness. Creating a safe and comfortable environment is paramount, allowing you the freedom to experience and express your emotions without reservation.

I value the importance of remaining receptive to any feedback or questions you may have. Recognizing that each individual is unique, I understand that there is no universal approach to therapy. Our sessions will be tailored specifically to address your needs and concerns, ensuring that you receive the personalized support and guidance necessary for your journey towards healing and growth.
