Sonya Theriault, LCSW

I work with individuals (trans, non binary, female & male) ages 18 and older.  Sessions are held at 200 High Street, Portland, Maine
​
New clients welcome! I am in network with Community Health Options, Harvard Pilgrim/Optum,  and accepting self pay clients with sliding scale rates of $90-$130 per 50 minute session. For EMDR Intensives I can bill in network insurance for the first hour of our work together. 

​Welcome! I am a clinical social worker with a passion for supporting people as they increase self awareness and tap into their own ability to heal themselves. I’ve worked with all kinds of people managing many different challenges. I specialize in trauma, eating disorders, life transitions, depression, and anxiety. My approach is client-centered, strengths- and mindfulness-based.

You are the expert of your life, and my job is to witness your process and offer guidance. Building self-compassion and acceptance are key components to recovery and wellness, and I will work with you to nurture these practices. 

I have been trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Acceptance-Commitment Therapy, and Nonviolent Communication. I’m also certified in Emotional Freedom Techniques/Tapping. I am able to draw from almost two decades of experience as a Yoga teacher to bring mindfulness- and body-based practices into our work together. 

​

Feeling better is possible, and you have everything you need within you to make it happen! I can help you connect to that well of potential, growth, and healing within.
