Sonni Parks (Williams) , LPC

Sonni Parks (Williams) helps people shape the lives they want by guiding them to claim their story and discover their voice. She works from the belief that personal experience is organized through the stories people tell about themselves - from messages learned early in life to the patterns adopted over time. Her practice emphasizes empowering clients to rewrite those narratives so they can step into the role of main character in their own lives.

Her counseling approach draws on narrative therapy and bibliotherapy. Narrative therapy gives individuals space to separate themselves from their problems, making it easier to see how a limiting story was formed and how it can be changed. Bibliotherapy uses reading and writing as tools to reflect, process emotions, and try new perspectives between sessions. Together these methods support people who have internalized messages like worthlessness or unlovability and want to reshape their self-view.

She holds the LPC credential. LPC stands for Licensed Professional Counselor, a credential that indicates formal training and licensure to provide professional counseling services.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Sonni integrates several evidence-informed approaches to meet a range of concerns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and to take steps that align with their values - a helpful approach for anxiety, stress, and adjusting to life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and creating a nonjudgmental space so clients can explore their feelings and build self-esteem; it is often useful for relationship challenges, grief, and identity work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, identifies patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to distress and teaches practical strategies to shift those patterns, commonly applied for anxiety and depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She works collaboratively with each person to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility and accessibility, allowing therapy to fit into busy schedules and different life circumstances. These options make it possible to continue consistent work on goals from home, during travel, or when in-person visits are not feasible.
