Sounds awfully familiar. Sony A7ii was really frustrating camera. Used it for for few years or so. The A7rII was a lot better and A7iii is already really good.

In many cases I'm just using continuous focus and reframing the picture whenever I want without any stress about missing the focus. Tthis means I can concentrate on more important aspects of the portraits than the focus. Ofc difficult lighting situations requires more care but it's still easy compared to previous models. A7r4 feels even better. Currently it looks like Sony is leading the mirrorless AF-race by 1-2 generations unless Canon manages to bring new flag ship model with something better as the rumors suggest but let's see how that really goes.
