01About Sonya
Sonya Bryce is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 21 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, and problems with self-esteem and relationships.

She uses practical techniques to help people make small, steady changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps clients notice thoughts that affect feelings and behavior. Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck or unsure about change.
Background and approach
Sonya adapts tools to what each person needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Sessions are collaborative. Together they set clear, realistic goals and make a plan that fits daily life.
She focuses on tangible steps people can try between meetings, so progress feels measurable and doable. Sonya also helps with career stress, caregiver strain, addiction recovery, panic and mood disorders, and issues that come from traumatic events or workplace pressure. She listens for what matters most to the person and shapes sessions around those priorities.
Clients can expect a friendly guide who asks direct questions and offers straightforward skills. Sonya practices in Virginia and balances empathy with practical problem solving to help people move forward.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. In practice this means sessions center on the persons priorities and the therapist reflects concerns back so things feel clearer and more manageable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior and try small experiments to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities, then suggest methods to try. Decisions about techniques are made together and can change as progress is seen or needs shift.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for more traditional face-to-face style conversations and skills practice. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for quick reflections, ongoing coaching, and when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules and support steady progress without adding extra trips.
