Sonya Young, LPCC — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Sonya!

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma-related challenges. I understand how difficult it can be to face these concerns, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.

My focus

I specialize in working with adults managing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and the lingering effects of trauma. My focus is helping you heal and grow through practical coping strategies and exploration of your inner resources as you navigate challenges and find your path forward.

My approach

I use evidence-based practices tailored to your individual needs. Together, we'll develop coping strategies, explore your inner strengths, and build resilience to help you reach your full potential.

My communication style

I create a space that feels open, warm, and supportive. My communication style is calm, non-judgmental, and empathetic. In our sessions, you'll feel comfortable sharing your concerns and goals in a safe and trusting relationship.

My journey to mental healthcare

After two decades in college administration and raising two children, I shifted careers to mental healthcare. Inspired by my own healing journey and my ability to support others, I returned to school and now focus on helping others find the healing I experienced.

My goals for you

Together, we'll focus on developing coping strategies, exploring your inner strengths, and building resilience to support your healing and growth. With personalized care, I'm here to help you find a path toward a healthier, more balanced life.

Our first session

Our first session will be a welcoming space where we get to know each other. You'll share your experiences, discuss your goals, and express any concerns. Together, we'll explore your strengths and how they can help you build resilience and overcome challenges while creating a clear path forward.
