Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session we will start by getting to know each other. We will then discuss the specific challenges you are facing so that we can create a plan that fits your needs.

I utilize several treatment methods including CBT, DBT, Trauma informed therapy, and couples counseling.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a seasoned therapist, I feel my biggest strength is my ability to provide my clients with a welcoming and safe environment. I truly care for my clients and the outcome of their treatment and I believe it is evident in how I treat my clients. I want each person to feel heard and to truly take ownership of their treatment.

Our first session was both wife and husband together seeking couples counseling. Sondra was very good at listening, asking for clarification, and confirming statements said without being judgemental or taking sides.

Sondra has been nothing but amazing for me! She is very understanding and caring about what she says. I have been struggling with things and she is gentle with what she says and how she says it. I really do appreciate her help!
