Sonya Tsouras Antoine is a Licensed Professional Counselor, educator, speaker, and author whose life's work is centered on helping people heal, rediscover their identity, and embrace their worth. As the founder of Positively Affirmed Therapeutic Services, she empowers individuals through counseling, mental health education, and community wellness initiatives that inspire resilience and personal growth. Her 10-week affirmation journal, I AM... Define Who You Are, was born from her belief that the words we speak over ourselves have the power to shape our healing and transform our lives. Through practical reflection, intentional affirmations, and honest self-discovery, Sonya encourages readers to move beyond self-doubt and define themselves by purpose rather than pain. Whether serving clients, speaking to audiences, or writing, her mission remains the same: to remind every person that healing begins with what you choose to believe about yourself.
