About Sonja
Sonja Roseman helps people handle stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. She also supports people facing grief, anger, low self-esteem, career transitions, and major life changes. Sonja is a Michigan licensed master social worker and has worked in the field for 10 years.
Her sessions aim to be simple and direct. She creates a calm space where people can talk about what is hard without judgment. The focus is on listening first and then working together to find ways forward that fit each person’s life.
How Sonja works
Sonja uses a client-centered approach that follows the person’s lead. She encourages honest conversation about feelings, needs, and goals. That helps people build confidence and clearer next steps for relationships, parenting, or work stress.
In practical terms she helps clients notice what’s getting in the way and try small changes. Sessions often include talking through daily routines, communication habits, and coping tools for anxiety or grief. The goal is steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.
People who choose her often want a supportive listener who also offers practical ideas. Sonja aims to empower clients so they can make choices that feel right. She works to make the process understandable and useful from the first visit.

Online support options
Client-centered care through online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding the person without judgment. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and follows the client's pace to help them clarify feelings and goals. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting questions, grief, and self-esteem work.The therapist emphasizes building a respectful, collaborative relationship. Together the client and therapist decide what to try and adjust the approach as needs change. Finding the right fit is part of the work, and the therapist will check in about goals and preferences over time.
Online therapy offers several practical options to fit different needs. Video calls let people use face-to-face time for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when a session needs to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These formats make therapy more flexible and easier to schedule around work, childcare, and other commitments.
