About Sonya

Sonya Bryce is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 21 years of clinical experience, licensed to practice in Arizona and Virginia and also credentialed as a licensed substance abuse treatment practitioner in Virginia. She works with adults from a variety of backgrounds who are navigating depression, anxiety, substance use concerns, trauma, and the stresses of life adjustments. Her work often addresses related challenges such as grief, relationship difficulties, caregiver stress, and issues with motivation and purpose.

Her approach is warm and approachable, inviting clients to share their concerns openly and to ask questions as they arise. Sonya primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - a practical method that helps people identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors - along with Motivational Interviewing, which supports clients in finding their own reasons and readiness for change. She adapts techniques to each person, focusing on strategies that fit an individual's strengths and circumstances.

Sonya partners with clients to create realistic treatment plans and attainable goals, emphasizing collaboration and steady progress. She acknowledges the courage it takes to seek help and aims to support each person through practical steps toward greater resilience and functioning.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Sonya uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing as core approaches in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many day-to-day challenges. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, client-centered method that helps people explore their own motivations for change, which can be especially helpful for substance use, ambivalence about change, and building readiness to take action.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Sonya works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She tailors strategies over time, combining techniques as appropriate to support progress in ways that feel manageable and relevant.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility constraints, or caregiving responsibilities. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access regular support, and try approaches that work within a client’s life, while allowing licensed professionals to deliver evidence-informed therapy across different formats.
