Licensed to practice in Pennsylvania and accepts 54 insurances. Specializes in Couples Counseling, Depression, Trauma and PTSD and 9 more.
My name is Sonja Allardyce, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker here in Pennsylvania. I have 12 years of professional experience supporting clients through a wide range of challenges, including stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, issues with motivation and self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and personality disorders. I believe in treating every person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I take a personalized, client-centered approach and will tailor our conversations and treatment plan to meet your unique needs and goals. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and meaningful life, and taking the first steps can be challenging. I am here to support and empower you as you move forward on your journey toward healing and positive change.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, build rapport, and explore what has brought you to therapy and what you identify as the specific challenges you're facing. Together we will create a tailored treatment plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I understand coming to therapy is a difficult decision for many. I try to make the experience as comfortable as possible creating an environment that creates comfort and safety.
I have experience working with teens, adults, elderly, families, couples and military community

Our first session was great!

Sonja did a wonderful job "unpacking" and diving deep into our backgrounds to better understand the current struggles in our relationship. She spent a lot of time with us on our first appointment to better understand us, which showed us she really cared about navigating a path forward with us. We loved her and look forward to more sessions together.
