About SHM Counseling
Led by Sofi H. Matz, LMHC, BC-DMT, SHM Counseling has served the Miami-area community for 25 years, offering in-person and online psychotherapy for individuals, couples, families, and executives in both English and Spanish.
A therapist known for warmth, clarity, and relationship insight
As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida, Sofi maintains a private practice in North Miami and supports clients from Surfside, Bal Harbour, Bay Harbor, Aventura, and Miami Beach, along with clients seeking online care across Florida.
Her style is compassionate, engaging, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change becomes possible when people feel both understood and empowered. Clients often seek Sofi’s guidance when they want to improve relationships, shift long-standing patterns, strengthen self-understanding, and move forward with greater confidence.
Sofi believes in inspiring change by empowering clients to focus on the solution rather than the problem, become the cause and not the effect, and develop specific steps toward the life they want.
