"Sophia's approach is dead-on and transforms all our soggy paradigms from the past into something that WORKS. She is participating powerfully in my transformation; she’s help me become a noticeably more loving and less ego-driven individual.
In the end, Sophia’s approach proves that spiritual evolution of self is the only way to attract the mate you're looking for, and she makes it easy. She’s taught me in just a few hours how simple shifts in my self-awareness and attitudes can change everything for the better.
Sophia’s experiential and philosophical approach does so much more than convert “lemons” into “lemonade”; she coaxes out our inner beauty. In my case, it was inner beauty I had never before appreciated in myself. Set free, that newfound joy and beauty is spreading like wildfire across every aspect of my life. I’ll never again approach a woman in the same way; I’ll never view my role in any love affair through the same flawed filter I was given in early life. She proves it is possible to teach old dogs new tricks!
I have never before praised any service to this whole-hearted extent. But Sophia is simply extraordinary to work with. I have no conflict of interest in saying this; I only hope she can spread her take on love far and wide. She brilliantly synthesizes the most salient aspects of popular self-help and religions concepts from every corner of human experience, and the results are powerful.
In fact, this service is much more than a matchmaking business. It’s really life-coaching on steroids, with a very pleasant side-effect. If you’re open to her guidance, it will bring much better matches and much better relationship skills into your life. Sophia helps solve the universal struggle of every human … the elimination of lovelessness and loneliness in our lives. Bravo Sophisticated Matchmaking!" Roger, Mercer Island/WA - October 8th, 2008
"Sophia McDonald’s approach to matchmaking is like no other. She believes that great relationships start with self awareness and she skillfully guides you through that process. Sophia has keen intuition and very insightful. She is teaching you in a very inspiring way to melt away hidden tendencies and behaviors that sabotage your relationships. What makes it pleasant working with Sophia is that she has a talent for teaching growth and transformation in a spirit of self-discovery and not blame, judgment or self-reproach. After every session with Sophia I feel enlightened and empowered. Sophia’s coaching already affected all aspects of my life. I was able to enhance my relationships with friends, parents, coworkers and even my neighbor without even trying. It’s like a magic ;-) I know I’ll never approach my next romantic relationship in a way I did before. I can‘t wait to discover what’s going to happen next." Tatyana O., Seattle/WA - October 9th, 2008
"You are one of the most accomplished women I have ever met (and I have met a lot of people). What makes you especially amazing is your gracious generous approach to life. I am sincere when I say you will be "famous". The spirit you embrace business into matchmaking makes a ton of sense to people like me who are very driven at work yet traditional in love. I truly thank you for the time you spent with me today. More than that, I thank you for the hard effort you put into making certain that I do my part. Much like a wonderful BIG sister, you sent me a POA (plan of action) which I greatly appreciate. Like faith without legs, talking about doing something means nothing if not followed with action!"

“While working with Sophia, I did recognize I was in the presence of amazing... Thanks again for being wonderful. You help me believe that there really are truly special women out there...” Male - 53yo, Olympia/WA - June, 2008
"I've always believed that certain people come into your life for a reason, and Sophia was definitely one of those people! I went into our meeting thinking I knew what I wanted and how to get it. Our time with Sophia was incredibly insightful for me, and I've been spending a lot of time thinking about what I want out of life. When I met her 2 weeks ago, I was sure that I was ready to find the right person and get married. Now, well...I'm not so sure I'm ready. In fact, asking myself 'why do I want that' has been an interesting question. If my life's goal is to travel and have a life of adventure, why do I need anyone else at all? I can do that for myself, and it is probably easier to do by myself anyway. It's been very liberating for me to realize that I don't NEED anyone. I think on a lot of levels I was waiting for someone to rescue me, and I've decided to rescue myself. After going through my family and persoanl history and reviewing goals with her, my eyes were opened in a big way. She helped me re-evaluate my priorities, see patterns of mistakes and helped me put together an action plan. I now have a better sense of who I am, what I'm looking for, and where I want to be. Spending a few hours with her changed my entire outlook on dating". Female - 33yo, Seattle/WA - January, 2008
"Without a doubt Sophia provides the most effective matchmaking service in the area. It's a waste of time and money to try any other service if you're truly seeking a serious relationship." Posted by: Tom Piscitelli, 10/9/2008
"Sophia is a woman with great insight and wisdom about people. Her positive energy is contagious. I tried a well know Internet dating service and quit after a while because it was lacking a personal touch. The first person introduced to me by Sophia turned out to be just "what the dating Doctor ordered." She's the best!" Male - 65yo, Bellevue/WA
"Thank you for the introduction you set up for me. Your experience and insight into people is very keen. The match you arraigned was a good one. I have had several dates with your client and there is good chemistry with us. We have a lot in common and have enjoyed each others company. I would be happy to recommend your services to anyone that is looking for a special person in their lives." Male - 60yo, Bellevue/WA
"Sophia McDonald is incredible at listening to what you really are communicating, even if you don't realize it yourself. If you are serious about wanting a quality matchmaking experience, you should work with her. If it is only an online type experience you want, she is not the one. Sophia's work with people is personal, in depth and insightful." Posted by: envoy, 10/9/2008
