About Sonya

Sonya Martinez is an LPC based in Texas who brings 10 years of clinical experience to her work with people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, relationship and family concerns, grief, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She helps clients facing intimacy and communication challenges, self-esteem and career questions, mood disorders such as bipolar and disruptive mood dysregulation concerns, and complex issues like caregiving strain, chronic illness, adoption and attachment challenges, and codependency. Her practice emphasizes creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult thoughts and feelings at their own pace.

Sonya frames change as a collaborative process, supporting clients through coaching-style guidance when helpful and addressing practical coping strategies alongside emotional processing. She communicates clearly about options and works to empower clients to try new patterns and build sustainable skills.

Sonya offers sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging, and she supports people working through parenting, LGBT concerns, anger, compassion fatigue, and commitment or control issues. As a Texas-licensed professional (TX LPC 65932), she blends compassion with practical tools to help clients move toward clearer goals and improved day-to-day functioning.

Evidence-Informed Techniques and Online Care

Sonya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients build skills and navigate emotional challenges. One common method focuses on practical skills training for managing anxiety, stress, and ADHD-related difficulties; this involves learning routines, organizational strategies, and coping tools to reduce daily disruptions. Another approach emphasizes emotion-focused work for mood and relationship concerns, helping people identify and process feelings, improve communication, and repair connection where needed.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sonya works with clients to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan as needed so treatment fits each person’s needs and preferences rather than following a fixed template.

Online therapy with Sonya is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility and consistent access to care. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions around work and family commitments, allow for ongoing coaching-style support between live meetings, and let clients engage in the ways that feel most manageable for them.
