“Feeling good about ourselves is essential in our being able to love others.”
Mr. Fred Rogers
About Dr. Mackenzie Soniak
I’ve worked across the lifespan throughout my career, but I have a special passion for working with young children and their families. I earned my doctorate from Antioch University of New England, with a concentration in child clinical psychology. I completed my pre-doctoral internship in Infant Mental Health at Tulane University School of Medicine and post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Colorado School of Medicine with the Irving Harris Program in Child Development and Infant Mental Health. During this time, I also specialized in working with mothers and fathers during pregnancy and the postpartum period. I am endorsed as an Infant Mental Health Specialist by the Alliance for the Advancement of Infant Mental Health.
I moved to South Carolina in 2020 to be with family. In my free time I enjoy spending time on the water, cooking with my family, and practicing yoga.
A relational approach
My approach to psychotherapy is grounded in child development concepts, attachment theory, parent-child relationships, and strengths-based principles. In sessions we will balance practical strategies and tools with exploration to uncover the underlying cause of symptoms. My practice centers on empowering children and caregivers as I walk alongside you to reach your therapy goals!

I strongly recommend that you contact your insurance company to find out the details of your plan with respect to mental health benefits.
