Jaclyn Sonne, LPCC — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Jaclyn!

I help teens and adults navigate life’s challenges and take their power back. Using a collaborative, evidence-based approach tailored to your unique needs, I act as a supportive co-pilot on your journey. Together, we build a safe space to process difficult emotions, overcome obstacles, and achieve lasting growth.

My focus

Struggling with anxious thoughts or self-doubt? I work with teens and young adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and self-esteem challenges. Together, we’ll build coping skills and create a personalized plan for growth that feels empowering and achievable.

My approach

My therapeutic approach blends evidence-based modalities (CBT and Trauma-informed modalities) to create a safe, validating environment where clients of all ages can manage stress, work through trauma, and build resilience.

My communication style

I prioritize clear, open communication to create a non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. I'll use humor when appropriate, and focus on the genuineness and authenticity of our connection to force through challenges together.

My journey to mental healthcare

Driven by a desire to understand human behavior, I moved from UX Research to therapy to help people actively transform. Guiding teens through trauma taught me the power of resilience. Now, I partner with clients to process where they’ve been, unlock new insights, and step confidently into control of their own lives.

My goals for you

I view therapy as a collaborative partnership where we focus on what matters most to you, from strengthening relationships to building self-esteem and personal growth. As you evolve, we’ll adjust your goals together, ensuring your care remains supportive, relevant, and aligned with the future you’re creating.

Our first session

Our first meeting is a welcoming space to discuss your goals and get a feel for how we’ll work together. It’s entirely normal to feel nervous at first, but we’ll take it one step at a time, moving at a pace that works best for you.
