 "Dear Sophia, I just want to let you know how grateful I am for you to help me this year. I broke up with my boyfriend in February, determined to find the path I wanted to take and had the personal interview with you. That interview helped me so much. In the last month, I met a wonderful man who is a principal of a school. He is 48 years old, a marathon runner. I know I am a bit older than him, but it does not seem to bother him. We have mutual attraction and admiration of each other, truly want to build the relationship of love and kindness. I have never thought I would find someone like him. People say you find someone when you are least looking, and that's exactly what happened to me. We are already thinking of planning trips for next year. I just want to thank you for all you have done for me this year. I truly believe when you have the right frame of mind, you would attract a person with the same. Happy holidays!" December 18th, 2009, Female, - Bellevue, WA
"From the moment I began talking with Sophia I felt she had a special understanding about me and what I was looking for. By the end of our first session I believe she knew more about me and my dating issues than I did. She has a very special way of making you comfortable and before you know it you are telling her your wants and needs for a relationship and thinking, “Wow, I didn’t realize that trait in a person is so important to me.” Sophia is very accessible, she quickly returns emails and phone calls, is constantly updating me on where we are in the process, what great man she thinks may be match for me, and setting up dates. Her services also include many fun outside events to attend. The “HIT THE TOWN” event that I attended was great time. Sophia invited a select group people whom she believed might make good matches for each other, 6 men and 6 women. The evening started off with a great intellectual discussion about relationships, dating issues, and advice on dealing with them. I found it to be a great way to gain insight on what the opposite sex was thinking and feeling about the dating process and it become obvious very quickly that we all seem to face the same problems. Sophia worked with everyone in a very conversational manner on what might work best for us to get over these hurtles. After a bite to eat, we all moved into the bar for an opportunity to speak one on one with anyone we wished. It was a wonderful time. I believe that Sophia truly cares about her clients and will search to the end of the earth to locate them their perfect match, and this is why I have put my love life in her capable hands." December, 2009 Female - Seattle, WA
"I just thought I would take a second to let you know that your personal information activities were the most inspiring I have seen here at FB so far! And I have seen MANY!!! Love and Blessings!!!" September 30, 2009 Female - Orange County, CA
"Sophia, you have given me new inspiration on being single and a new hope! Well you have inspired me a great deal and since I have been reading your posts I believe I myself have made a turn in a better direction! So just another personal thank you for your inspiration! You rock!!I thank you so much!!!" November 28th, 2009 Male - Eugene, OR
"My life totally changed in the past month, you have no idea, to the good, to the excellent, and I think your words had some influence in my change, thanks :) I feel so good, I am blessed and happy inside, and it feels great! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving." November 28, 2009 Male – Los Angeles, CA
"Sophia, you are a breath of fresh air. How candidly you spoke about your experience and desire to help others is remarkable. You have a power within you that reaches out and lifts others up. To have dedicated your life's work to helping and teaching people to find love will surely benefit countless lives. I am in awe of you, and the beauty that emanates from you and how you have tackled your own demons and are here to help and teach others… Thank you for your time, energy and for the important information you shared with me. With kind regards..." November 27, 2009 Female – Bellevue, WA
"What a great service! Sophia really understood what I was looking for in a man and didn’t accuse me of being too fussy (which I thought I was!). On the third attempt, she hit jackpot! John and I have been together for 7 months now and I couldn’t be happier!" September, 2009 Female – Seattle, WA
"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!" Female - 47yo, Bellevue/WA - December, 2007
“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
"Sophia McDonald, Brings class, elegance and the right combination of romance… This is the future…." Posted by: Pamela11, 10/8/2008
"Sophisticated Matchmaking is OUTSTANDING!!! Sophia McDonald is a great host with understanding and compassion for her matchmaking success, bar none!!!" Posted by: phatddy, 10/8/2008
"The group in attendance was open and willing to share views and listen to others." - Kelly (Aug 21, 2008)
"Your questions will be answered. The insight of a professional matchmaker brings to light many topic that you can further explore on your own." - Arland (Aug 14, 2008)
"It's a different perspective on dating." - Brian (Aug 11, 2008)
"Sophia has a lot of passion for what she does. She is a person that I feel that can improve your life just by being around her and listening to her speak." - Brett (Jul 25, 2008)
"Good to come with a open heart, if you want to get better at dating and relationships" - Jacqueline (Jul 24, 2008)
"I wasn’t Sophia’s client, but highly recommended her agency to my best single friends, because it’s actually something new, refined and exceptionally serious on the matchmakers market. Charming, intelligent and well educated CEO – Ms. McDonald - a delicate psychologist by nature helped them to sense a hope for true love in our practical time." Posted by: Margo Akopyan 10/9/2008

“The extensive interview helps McDonald uncover information that allows her to match clients according to their character and prior relationships, rather than interests or hobbies. McDonald also performs an “emotional tune-up,” in which she helps clients analyze past relationships and decide what they want in a mate. She then scours her sources, including a 3,000-person database, to find a match...”
