About Ananda 8 Wellness

Sophia Hoskins, MS, LMFT

If you've built an impressive life but feel disconnected from yourself in the process, you're not alone. People holding it all together often come to therapy running on empty, caught in perfectionism, or asking bigger questions — is this what I actually want? Who am I outside of what I accomplish?

I'm Sophia, a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Hawaii & Florida, a wellness coach and E-RYT 500 registered yoga instructor. I work with executives, athletes, and entrepreneurs, and everyone else who are done running on empty and ready to operate from clarity instead of pressure.

My approach centers on one idea: there's a story quietly running your life — about what you have to do, who you have to be, what's possible for you. Together, we find that story, rewrite it, and anchor the new one rooted in authenticity and wholeness. Not just insight — transformation that reaches into how you relate to yourself and the world.

Ananda 8 Wellness is a therapy and coaching practice for people ready to live life on purpose, aligned with what really matters to them. My work blends narrative therapy, mindfulness, and somatic practice to help you access real, lasting change — not just insight.

What You Can Expect

  • Genuine relief from the pressure and the constant push
  • Clarity on what you actually want, separate from what you think you should want
  • Better stress resilience and nervous system regulation
  • Stronger, more authentic relationships
  • The ability to make decisions, perform and succeed from a place of clarity instead of fear
  • A life that finally feels like yours

How We Work Together

What Support Looks Like

We start by exploring the story quietly running your life — the beliefs about who you need to be and what you need to do to matter. From there, we work with both mind and body: identifying patterns, rewriting the narratives that no longer serve you, and building new ways of being that feel sustainable.

Professional Background

Nearly Two Decades of Practice

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Hawaii and Florida. I also offer life coaching to clients located in other states.

I bring nearly two decades of clinical experience to my work with people holding it all together and individuals navigating life's most complex challenges. My career began with mental health counseling across all branches of the military — both stateside and overseas — where I worked with service members, veterans, and their families through some of their most demanding experiences. That work taught me resilience, the impact of high-stress environments on the mind and body, and the importance of meeting people where they are without judgment.

For the past 18 years, I've maintained a private practice where I've deepened my understanding of what drives people holding it all together, the cost of sustained performance, and the pathways to genuine healing and sustainable success. I've worked with executives, entrepreneurs, athletes, and accomplished professionals who are asking bigger questions about meaning, identity, and what it truly means to thrive.

Alongside my clinical work, I'm an E-RYT 500 registered yoga instructor and have been teaching since 2016. This training in somatic awareness, breathwork, and embodied practice has transformed how I work in therapy — helping clients access change not just intellectually, but in their nervous systems and bodies. My approach weaves together narrative therapy, mindfulness, and somatic practices to create lasting transformation.

Movement gives emotions an expression. Visit Happy Yoga with Sophia for a gentle flow, a strong vinyasa, or a sweet restorative practice.

I'm here to bring all of that experience to support you.

You don't need to do more. You need to feel like yourself again.

In Her Own Words

My Approach to Therapy

I believe therapy works best when it feels like a real conversation with someone who genuinely has your back. My style is laid back and straightforward — I'm here to listen without judgment, to help you make sense of what's weighing on you, and to remind you of the strengths you already have that might be buried under stress and pressure right now.

I focus on what's working in your life, not just what's broken. Together, we'll identify the resources and resilience you already possess and figure out how to use them to move through what feels difficult. You deserve a space where you can be completely honest, where vulnerability is safe, and where you're seen as capable of real change.

A word about support: Everyone deserves it. Therapy is about giving yourself permission to get the support you need so you can show up the way you want to — for yourself and for the people you care about. Whether you're navigating stress, relationships, identity, or just feeling stuck, I'm here to help you find clarity and move forward.

If something in this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.
