Getting to know Sonji Thomas

My name is Sonji Thomas, and I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with a Clinical Practice license (#16622). I earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of South Carolina. I believe that everyone faces challenges in life, but how we handle those challenges shapes the way we live. My hope is to work collaboratively to improve quality of life. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Trauma Focused Therapy in my practice. While I have experience working with children and adolescents, I prefer working with adults to address issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, and various personal and environmental stressors. I strive to create a welcoming and safe environment where individuals can express their thoughts and feelings without judgment. Helping people, regardless of their circumstances, has always been my passion. My experience includes working with children in the Department of Juvenile Justice, children and adults in mental health settings, those affected by abuse or neglect, hospital patients ensuring safe discharge, and clients with End Stage Renal Disease. In all these roles, my goal was to improve the quality of life for those I served. Now, I focus on supporting the internal processes of individuals, equipping them with tools to manage any challenges that arise. I take a collaborative approach to goal setting, believing that the client's active participation is vital to achieving their goals. My role is to help navigate the process. The first session will focus on getting to know each other, understanding the reason for seeking therapy, discussing the client's expectations, and clarifying my role as a therapist.
