I’m Sonya Jensen, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Gottman Method Couples Therapist and Sex Therapist. I have extensive post-graduate training and experience working with couples through their most difficult times. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and backed by research. In addition to giving couples clear guidance and tools, I’m passionate about bringing genuine warmth and heart to our work together.
Are you stuck in negative and unproductive patterns? Are you looking to seriously improve your life or your communication within your family, your significant other or spouse? Are you willing to do something different? If so, lets talk. I am an integrative and holistic therapist. I work collaboratively with individuals and couples, treating the complete person: mind, body, heart and spirit, for total wellness and better relationships.
I am finally fulfilling my own personal and mythic destiny to be a counselor for individuals wanting to find their own purpose by resolving what has stopped them along their life path. I bring a depth and wealth of academic, professional and real world experiences and education to my clients.
I specialize in depth, meaning-focused, and existential work with clients struggling to reignite a sense of purpose in their life. I can help you find a path forward through issues including chronic depression, trauma recovery, addiction, and living with ADHD or autism. I bring deep compassion, a wealth of reading and training, and a sense of humor about life into every session.
I like clients who are their own people–we might get along if you're rebellious, nerdy, or like to question social norms. I work with clients to identify their areas of concern and then alternate between zooming in to change patterns using practical strategies, and pulling back to see the core issues and values that guide your bigger picture needs and choices.
I am trained in EMDR therapy for trauma and negative core beliefs. I am LGBTQIA friendly, open-minded, and affirming of diverse lifestyles and identities.
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Psychological Associate in Independent Practice
Reaching out for help is a sign of strength not weakness, If you are ready to receive help, we can work together to achieve your therapy goals. I cannot tell you what to do. I can listen, help you discover patterns of thought and behavior that are not serving you well and help you find techniques to cope with your thoughts and behavior appropriately to affect change in your life. There are many approaches to therapy, just as there are many individual issues. Expect me to employ therapy modalities tailored to your needs, not to be married to an approach that doesn't resonate with you.
I dedicate myself to assisting individuals with obtaining their personal goals by improving their insight of self awareness. As your counselor I will be honest direct and empathetic by using positive reinforcement to help you keep moving forward. I thoroughly enjoy working one on one with clients by providing a safe, caring and confidential environment to explore your feelings, beliefs and behaviors.
I will help you work through challenging and influential memories from past to present. I will assist in goal setting and desired life changes. I am passionate about what I do and seeing my clients succeed.
