I am person-centered and compassionate. I am an active and reflective listener who meets clients where they are and consults with them to gain a more desired outcome. If you or your loved one is a person who lives with any level intellectual/developmental, physical, behavioral or any other type of disability, you may often find it difficult to find therapists that will provide the counseling you need. The challenges that can at times be more than you can handle deserve a team (you and a supportive therapist) effort to overcome or bring under control. My name is Sonya A. Allen, and I am here for you.
With more than 30 years of experience working with individuals of all ages with disabilities, I have taken that experience and coupled it with my education from both Norfolk State University and South University to develop a person-centered therapeutic methodology in my counseling efforts.
I am not opposed to working with any age group, do whether the age is 4 or 94, I look forward to meeting you. Contact me to schedule a consultation call to discuss whether I am the therapist for you.
