What does a first session with you look like?

The first session, as with all Thriveworks therapists, will involve talking through your needs and goals for therapy — whether those involve managing depression, anxiety, relationship problems, or another mental health challenge. This will enable you to receive the very best care, as a personalized treatment plan will then be developed for subsequent sessions. Thriveworks helps people live happier, more fulfilling lives. Clients are guided and supported as they work through their unique mental health challenges – and, along the way, shown the life-changing power of therapy.

What is your style/approach to therapy?

I offer a variety of counseling approaches including CBT / Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems. I believe that instead of a clear cookie-cutter process in therapy, everybody requires something a little different from the next.

What should we know about your experiences and background?

Sonna Kem is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of New Jersey with up to 8 years of experience. Her experience includes treating adolescents, adults, families, and couples with a diverse range of clinical needs including anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, relationship issues, and LGBTQIA+ issues. Sonna completed her Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Rowan University. She approaches counseling from a client-focused approach as she recognizes that everybody requires something different when starting counseling. From there, based on the needs and personalities of those she works with, Sonna utilizes techniques and strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), rational emotive behavioral therapy (REBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT). Sonna is motivated to help clients achieve personal goals so that they can experience an improved quality of life.
