About me
Greetings everyone,
My name is Dr. Sonja Bethune and I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist in the state of California. Over the past 10 years, I have been providing therapy to various populations in which the main struggles have been with depression, anxiety, career challenges, relationship issues and sexual disorders while utilizing a cognitive behavioral approach. I earned a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Health Psychology; therefore I believe that the mind and body affect each other continuously. Additionally, I have 18 years of experience as a supervisor, trainer, director, educator and counselor at various psychiatric hospitals, schools and clinics in Southern California.
My counseling style is warm and personable. Although, I use cognitive behavioral approach in my treatment methods, I also use an eclectic style that matches what the client needs, which includes applying some psychodynamic and rational emotive behavior techniques. The goals and treatment plan will be catered specifically to your needs.
You should applaud yourself for taking this first step into developing clear insight into your own behaviors and thought processes. I will be here to support you every step of the way.
