About Soni

Soni Dani-Cox is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in California with ten years of professional experience. She helps people pinpoint what’s causing persistent stress, anxiety, or struggles with mood and behavior. Her manner is warm, respectful, and interactive, which many clients find easy to talk with during hard conversations.

She draws on several ways of working rather than a single method. Sessions often mix clear, practical steps with deeper conversation about patterns and past experiences.

Background and approach

That can include learning new coping tools, testing different habits, and looking at how relationships affect daily life. Soni commonly supports people dealing with relationship problems, grief, trauma and abuse, depression, and addiction. ADHD is listed among her focus areas, and she helps people who want strategies for attention, organization, and daily routines.

She also addresses sleep, anger, self-esteem, and career-related stress. Her style is collaborative and tailored. Clients can expect conversations that balance insight with concrete practice.

She aims to replace blaming language with useful skills that fit each person’s life. People often come to her when life changes feel overwhelming or when long-standing patterns keep repeating. Soni works to build tools that last beyond therapy, helping people manage hard moments and pursue more satisfying relationships and routines.

Evidence-informed approaches for online care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with concrete behavioral experiments. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and problems with sleep or attention. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches specific skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling interpersonal conflict in calmer ways. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on emotions within relationships and helps people express needs and repair connection.

Soni will work together with each person to determine which approach or mix of approaches fits best. That process is collaborative: goals, daily routines, and what feels manageable all shape the plan. The therapist adapts methods over time based on what helps in real life.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful when visual cues matter and for more in-depth sessions. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people send quick updates, practice skills between sessions, or schedule brief check-ins without being on camera. These options help therapy fit around work, family, and busy schedules.
