About Sonya
Sonya Fields is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who draws on 25 years of practice to help people make practical changes in everyday life. She listens with curiosity and honesty, and she uses clients' strengths to move them toward clearer goals. Her work often addresses sleep and rest concerns alongside stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, and life transitions.
Sonya encourages small, doable steps rather than big leaps. She helps clients identify internal strengths and external resources. That can mean setting simple routines, trying new coping tools, or practicing short mindfulness exercises to improve sleep and reduce worry.
Her approach combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral and emotionally-focused strategies. She also uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support choices and commitment to change. Sessions can include practical coaching for health and wellbeing when that helps reach therapy goals.
Sonya typically blends live sessions with message-based support as needed, and she prefers some phone or video meetings alongside text contact. She aims to make therapy fit busy lives by focusing on what matters most to each person and helping them take manageable steps.
She is based in South Carolina and offers services in English. Sonya frames the therapeutic process around clients' values and strengths, helping them build routines and habits that support better rest, clearer thinking, and more meaningful relationships.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, understanding, and meeting people where they are. Online sessions using this approach prioritize the client's goals and pace, helping them name what matters and decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns; online CBT often includes homework and short skill practice between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and work with strong emotions that affect relationships and personal wellbeing, using focused conversations to shift emotional responses.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sonya will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan over time based on what helps most and what a client feels comfortable using.
