Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW


About

I believe people are more than their diagnosis. Yes, a diagnosis is a tool but it is not the big picture. I come from a place of curiosity and wonder, wanting to know my clients on a deeper level so that I can help them navigate this world. For example, PTSD is a big diagnosis that is thrown around; yet, it doesn't paint the full picture. It doesn't reflect someone's experiences, triggers, how this is impacting their relationships, family history, the strengths they possess etc. Adolescents are my passion however, I also enjoy and work closely with families and adults.

I am an EMDR Certified Therapist with specialized EMDR trainings in addiction, attachment, adoption and non-verbal trauma. I also have trainings in Attachment Based Family Therapy (ABFT), ABFT specific LGBTQ+ Adolescents, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Multidimensional Family therapy.

Therapy is hard AND it is also hard navigating mental health alone. I have the experience and training to help and I pride myself on my ability to build rapport. I feel confident that together we can create your goals and make a plan to reach them.

Sonya Paramore, LPC


Hello there. I'm glad you are here.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with almost 25 years of experience in the mental health field including community mental health, hospice bereavement care, and private practice therapy. 

​It's a combination of my own stories, experiences and training that have led me to uniquely understand how trauma affects the deep places of our hearts, minds & bodies. Neuroscience is clear that trauma resides in our body and creates neural networks in the brain that can lead to stuck patterns. Pervasive shame, guilt, hypervigilence & anxiety are all signals that we are likely living with unprocessed trauma. Whether it is small "t" trauma that has happened over time, or big "T" trauma that happened once, I can walk with you to explore what needs to be told and processed to help bring healing and freedom. We can come to know parts of you that need their voices to be heard. You can learn new ways of seeing yourself, others, and your relationship with God. Let me reassure you that you can experience healing. ​I'd be honored to walk with you.

Midwest born and raised, I currently reside in the St. Louis metro area. I approach therapy with authenticity, compassion, and meet each client where they are in life.
