Sonja has conducted a private Counselling/Psychotherapy and Coaching practice located on Sydney’s North Shore for the past 14 years . During this time she developed and presented numerous professional and personal development training courses, authored a book as well as countless other publications, developed and maintained an interactive web-service for blended families and has made numerous public speaking and media appearances.

Passionate about personal and professional development, Sonja considers herself a change agent and is committed to enhancing individual’s potential in all areas of life. Fuelled by the conviction that every person is capable of doing whatever it takes to achieve their best, it is her privilege to function as coach, mentor, therapist, facilitator and educator. 

SONJA’S VISION is to assist each individual to:

*  Become the best person they can be.?
*  Develop the most rewarding relationships they can have.
*  Use their unique qualities, abilities and strengths so they will be able to?        
*   pursue their most cherished dreams.?
*  Achieve maximum personal development and growth.

SONJA’S DESIRE is to:

*  Help those who struggle with difficulties in their lives - who've had it tough in the past or are finding little joy in their present - to overcome their hurdles, develop their strengths and discover their brilliance.

*  Assist those who just need a kick-start towards implementing empowering changes so that they may be able to move towards a more satisfying future.

*  Walk alongside those who are grieving a loss (whether their grief is due to the death of a loved one or to separation or divorce…or the loss of a desired goal, a hope, a vision or a dream).

*  Empower those who are suffering the pain of disappointment, rejection, anger, failure (or fear of failure); an inability to forgive and to move beyond these crippling emotions.

*  Assist those who suffer the agonies of depression and crippling anxiety by devising the kind of life-strategies that will lead them out of their pain.

*  Enable those who are lacking in work/life balance, have difficulties in prioritising and/or are slaves to their jobs, to develop healthier ways of functioning within their environment.

*  Assist those who are struggling with relationship issues (in their marriage or love relationship, their friendships, their families or their work environment) to develop more satisfying and successful ways of relating.

In summary, Sonja desires to ENCOURAGE, EMPOWER AND INSPIRE each individual, whose life she has the privilege of touching, to create a life for themselves of which they can be proud  -  a life filled with purpose, joy, love, happiness and peace.
