About Us
Our Approach
In the first sessions, we will complete assessments and gather information. We secure information from basic genograms, covering your histories in the areas of families, conflicts in the homes, stability, struggles with incomes, substance use, cultures, traumas, previous mental histories or family histories, schools, and abuses. We empower individuals to overcome personal obstacles to improve their relationships by using clinically-tested and evidence-based interventions. We also take a direct approach with our clients, never sugar-coating or telling them what they want to hear; we focus on what they need to hear to achieve the results they desire.
Services
Radical Acceptance is the willingness to experience ourselves and our lives as it is.

Testimonials
One of the most difficult steps I have had to take is in realizing that I needed help and then asking for it. When I found Sonja, I had full resolve in feeling "better" but no idea what that was or what it looked like. In all admittance, it is hard, unlearning all of the things I put in place to protect myself, that were in essence hurting me more now has been a struggle. This is not easy, even with resolve, even with face front entry this can be a painful journey. But it is more painful to live with all of the broken habits and ideals. I am beginning to see and feel some peace, thanks to Sonja never ending push and knowledge. What I appreciate most, is that it doesn't feel cookie cutter, she definitely takes time to figure things out with you, to understand where you are coming from, and is a bit relentless I suppose you have to be ....Thank you Sonja From VG
Sonja is supportive, builds a great rapport, and has wonderful expertise.
I just started but already I feel an impact from our communications. Greatly Appreciated!!!
Talking with Sonja is like talking to my best sister friend!! She listens and I dump all of my crap in her lap and helps me to dissect the hows and the whys. I never expected to feel this comfortable telling a complete stranger my personal business. She is a master in her craft!
Sonja listens incredibly well and has a way of reading between the lines. She brings together themes between the seemingly unconnected things I bring up in therapy and helps generate a complete picture of my pain and pathway to healing. Seriously couldn’t recommend her enough.
Let me tell you she has been a joy to work with. She gives you what you need and keeps it real. I appreciate and respect her to the fullest. I HIGHLY recommend her for your therapy needs. She is great!
Hi Ms. C, I wanted to reach out to you, I also hope you are doing well and thriving in life!. I wanted to say I don’t think I can ever thank you enough for all you’ve done for me. It’s been a while since our sessions, yet not a day goes by that I don’t think back to the lessons we uncovered together. You didn’t just help me through the challenges I faced then—you gave me tools that continue to guide me, shaping my life in ways I never expected. The strength, resilience, and peace I carry now are rooted in the foundation you helped me build.
Because of you, I’m not just surviving; I’m truly thriving. I wake up each day feeling closer to my dreams and more capable of handling whatever life throws my way. The happiness and clarity I feel now are things I once thought were out of reach, but you showed me they were possible. You didn’t just give me support; you gave me the confidence and courage to face life with a new perspective. The man I’m becoming is unreal, people tell me everyday how much they respect me and my growth.
Thank you, Ms. C, for being there, for listening, for believing in me when I struggled to believe in myself. I carry our work together in my heart, and I know I am who I am today because of your kindness, wisdom, and unwavering support. I’m living proof of your impact, and I’ll forever be grateful.
With all my love and gratitude
