Sonni Parks (Williams) , LPC

Sonni Parks (Williams) helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, and issues common to women’s lives. She works with clients coping with depression, bipolar symptoms, trauma and abuse, and life changes such as pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum challenges. Her aim is to help people reclaim their story and move toward the life they want.

She uses a narrative approach that encourages clients to see themselves as separate from their problems. That makes it easier to spot old, limiting beliefs and rewrite them. She also draws on cognitive and mindfulness-based tools to change unhelpful thoughts and rebuild day-to-day coping skills.

Sessions are conversational and practical. Clients can expect to talk through specific problems, try small experiments between sessions, and practice new ways of responding. Sonni emphasizes clear steps people can use at home to reduce anxiety and improve relationships.

Her background includes six years working as a licensed professional counselor, LPC, in South Carolina. That experience has included helping people dealing with trauma, grief, and difficult life transitions. She also brings techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and the Gottman Method when relationship skills are needed.

People who value an active, story-focused style find her approach accessible. She encourages clients to name the narratives that hold them back and then take practical steps to change them. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s goals.

Approach-driven online therapy for stress and relationships

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based action rather than getting stuck in avoidance. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and experience, offering a supportive space where a therapist listens and reflects so clients can find their own direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to break those patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process means strategies can be adjusted over time as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people work face-to-face when that feels helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat or text-based messaging offers shorter, more frequent touchpoints between meetings. These options help clients fit therapy into busy schedules and keep progress moving forward.
