About me

I help people to create the life that they want through owning their narrative and finding their voice. My philosophy is centered around teaching people how to rewrite their narrative and become the main character in their life. I believe we live our lives through stories and experiences. From the stories we've been told about ourselves to the ones we've adopted over time. I counseling approach utilizes narrative and bibliotherapy. Narrative therapy allows you to separate yourself from your problems or concerns. If all your life you were told that you were worthless or unlovable some point you may start to believe that narrative. Narrative therapy helps you re-write and take ownership of your story and your life.

Sonni was so helpful to me. She helped me work through so many different issues I was juggling and made me more confident in the way I handle things. I’m forever grateful for her!

Sonni was great. I worked with her for a little over a year during a time when many surprising difficulties all came up in my life all at once. It was very helpful to have someone outside my "real world" to talk to at a time when I could not always trust friends and family, and she helped me take seriously the importance of making decisions that would lead to a satisfying life instead of always sacrificing myself out of a sense of duty to others.

Sonni exemplifies her name with her sunny demeanor. No matter the mood I'm in, I always look forward to my session with Sonni because she lifts my spirits. Even when I'm crying she can get me to crack a smile amd push through to do the work. She's not afraid to tell me what I need to hear, give me work to do, and still be the gentle kind voice that I lack for myself. I'm so thankful to have Sonni in my arsenal of mental health wealth.
