A note from Sonja
Hello! My name is Sonja Nikiema and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I enjoy hikes, sunshine and a good novella in the rain season. I am a sports fan and played through college myself. My goal is to ensure your experience is what you need it to be even if you’re unsure what that looks like initially. I use different modalities to best meet your vision, needs at a pace you feel comfortable with and aligning it with your benefits.
