Sonya Taylor Pratt
I am a compassionate Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to creating a warm, supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and valued. I collaborate with each person to honor their unique experiences, strengths, and goals, using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tailored to individual needs. I work with children and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, and other mental health concerns. Together, we will build on your strengths, foster resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.
First session
During our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and discuss what brought you to therapy. I’ll ask about your current concerns, personal history, strengths, and goals so we can develop a treatment plan that meets your needs. This is also an opportunity for you to ask questions, share what you’re hoping to gain from therapy, and determine whether we’re a good fit. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment where you feel comfortable being yourself.

Ideal clients

Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we identify unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and build practical skills to manage challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client’s unique goals, empowering them to create meaningful and lasting change.
