Getting to know Sonya Chavez

Hi there, I'm Sonya! Feeling like you're experiencing the same thing over and over? Dealing with a mind that won't let you rest, overwhelmed with life situations, repeating the same argument with loved ones? You are not alone and do not have to navigate this journey alone. My focus Life happens, and thoughts can linger. You don't have to navigate these challenges (Anxiety, Depression, Self-esteem, Trauma, Life transitions, etc.) on your own. Let's create skills that work in your life to move towards a sound mind. My approach My approach is collaborative and practical. I will tailor my approach to meet you where you are, giving you tools to feel more in control. Using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you identify unhelpful thoughts. I may also incorporate mindfulness or other techniques to support your goals and progress. My communication style I prioritize a collaborative and open communication to create a supportive environment. I encourage transparency and conversation, where you control the pace of your goals with practical guidance. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into therapy began with a curiosity about human resilience and a desire to help others find strength through life’s challenges. Working with trauma survivors showed me the power of therapy in healing. I’m driven by the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and lasting change. My goals for you This is your journey! Together, we’ll set goals that matter to you—whether that’s improving relationships, building self-esteem, or pursuing personal growth. As you gain new insights, we’ll adapt your plan to stay meaningful and supportive as you move toward where you want to be. Our first session The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and discuss what brings you to therapy. It’s normal to feel nervous—therapy is a process we’ll build together over time. We’ll move at your pace, one step at a time, and I’ll be here to guide you.
