Sonntag Counseling: Providing Hope, Awareness, & Direction. My experience consists of 19 years in academic medical centers, 14 of which was inpatient psychiatric care. I see therapy as a partnership between client and therapist with the goal of teaching skills to help individuals live and behave in ways consistent with their personal values, while also developing psychological flexibility. By recognizing ways in which our attempts to suppress, manage, and control emotional experiences can create challenges and strain relationships, we determine goals and work towards wellness, balance, and a life full of meaning.

I know what it is like to feel sad for no apparent reason. My ideal client is someone who feels misunderstood, lost, with little or no purpose. I want to get you to participate in life again. Don't let anybody take away your right to live a meaningful life.

Ah, this life! In the lyrics of an old song, ‘Nobody said it was easy, no-one ever said it would be so hard’. I’ve spent most of my life dedicated to human connection- to self and other— bringing deep curiosity to how we can belong deeply to ourselves, and still be loved and belong deeply to one another. It’s not easy. Yet, it truly is possible. And, we need courage and guides along the way. That is where I can help. Our time together is a place where you can unfold yourself. Where you can learn to trust again. I am skilled at working in the deeper realms of grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, and above all intimacy and sexuality.

Do you have trauma, anxiety or depression and feel ready to work on yourself? Perhaps you are new to therapy but feel motivated or inspired to heal and work through emotions, conflicts or blockages to living a more fulfilling life. Have you had other therapies but feel “it’s time” to go deeper and explore root causes of patterns and issues? Do you feel you are in an “awakening“ and hope to work with a Transpersonal Therapist to support the integration of your higher or Whole/Core Self?

I approach my counseling with a belief that all children and young people have the potential to make positive change for themselves and for the world around them. I adapt my therapeutic approach to the client but often utilize strength-based counseling, positive talk therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to encourage personal growth while I coach and help guide the way. I believe counseling has the power to change the direction of your life, by developing techniques, skills, and perspective that builds confidence and creates social emotional growth that lasts a lifetime.

I am genuinely passionate about helping young women navigate early adulthood with all its challenges and complexities. Coping with anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression can often impact the pursuit of what you truly want in life—both individually and in relationships—bringing waves of despair and moments of discouragement that often feel overwhelming. These fears can be all too real and can leave you feeling lost and alone. I am dedicated to walking alongside you as you explore your emotions and feelings, discover your inner resilience, and take steps toward self-compassion and a greater sense of trust in who you are.

I am a mental counselor licensed in two states: TX and WA. I believe everyone has their own defined resiliency. Being resilient does not mean that people don’t experience stress, emotional upheaval, and suffering. My approach to counseling is focused on understanding a person holistically. I place a heavy emphasis on establishing a safe and collaborative relationship with all my clients; I provide each client with a safe, non-judgmental environment to express their issues and concerns. I hope to help people find their strengths and support them in their unique needs.

Your relationship with alcohol is tenuous at best. You’re not sure if you want to be sober forever (because that sounds kind of scary), but something has to change. Alcohol is getting in the way of the life you have worked hard to build, and it’s only a matter of time until something bad happens. You want to understand why you drink and take back control of your life, but finding the right type of treatment has been difficult. You don't want to sit in a group of random people for hours or be shamed for leaning on alcohol as the only coping skill you have intact. There is another way. You don’t have to ‘white knuckle’ it forever.

I am passionate about helping couples and individuals uncover the source of their emotional suffering and identify new strategies for adjusting to painful life events. I am concerned with the way our significant relationships, both early-on and in adulthood, impact how we experience the present. I collaborate with couples to identify unmet attachment needs driving disconnection in relationships and facilitate expression of these needs so partners can reconnect and feel secure in their relationships. My work with individuals promotes self-acceptance and value-driven action.

As a certified Lifespan Integration therapist, I work with clients to ease anxiety and depression, work through trauma, and help manage challenging life transitions. Lifespan Integration is experiential and uses gentle bottom-up processing to increase neural integration and attain resolution. For most people, our wounds are experienced viscerally and therefore require an approach that recognizes the body-mind system. While skills are helpful, it is difficult to use them when we're triggered. Sometimes, these triggers persist even when we know full well there is no threat.
