More about Sonya
- 16 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
My name is Sonya Poole and I have been providing counseling services to adults and teens for the past fifteen years. I have worked in a variety of setting with a variety of populations. My primary focus is on addressing issues related to anxiety and stress. I work with the client to identify their goals for therapy and then help them to address those areas of need. I see therapy as a tool where an individual can work to improve their current life situation and move towards a better, happier self.
