Getting to know Sonja Bandstra

Congratulations on taking the courageous step toward improving your mental health! Beginning therapy can evoke a mix of emotions-empowerment, confusion, and even fear-but it's a significant stride toward positive change. I strive to create a space of emotional safety to help you explore the thoughts, perceptions, and emotions you are experiencing from the stressors and challenges in your life. Counseling is a journey of personal growth, tailored to meet your unique needs and aspirations. Together, we can work toward building the fulfilling life you deserve. When you're ready to take the next step toward personal development, I'm here to support you. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to guide you effectively on this journey.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
