About Sonja

Sonja Roseman is a licensed social worker in Michigan who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family concerns. She also supports parents, people coping with grief, and those dealing with intimacy, anger, self-esteem, career stress, and life changes.

Sonja brings ten years of professional experience to her work and aims to make starting therapy easier for worried parents and adults. She uses a client-centered approach that focuses on listening carefully and responding to each person’s needs.

Background and approach

Sessions are meant to feel open and nonjudgmental so people can talk about what matters most. Sonja encourages practical steps that build on a person’s strengths rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all plan. In the therapy room she creates space for honest conversation.

She asks questions to clarify what’s most important and helps people set small, realistic goals. Discussions often include ways to manage overwhelming feelings and improve day-to-day routines. Parents often find support around communication, boundaries, and coping with changes in family life.

For those grieving or feeling stuck, Sonja offers steady guidance to explore emotions and try new ways of coping. Her style is direct but warm, with an emphasis on helping people feel heard and understood. Sonja holds the LMSW credential, which stands for Licensed Master Social Worker.

She practices in Michigan and conducts sessions in English by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to connect people and schedule sessions.

Client-centered care delivered online

Client-centered Therapy centers on the person rather than the problem. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and supports clients as they find their own solutions. This approach helps with stress, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, and grief by focusing on each person’s values and goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide what feels most useful based on needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions are adjusted over time so the plan matches what is actually helping.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to get support from home or between commitments. Many clients appreciate being able to choose the format that works best for them while still working with a licensed professional.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
