I help people of all ages- children, teens, and adults - who are survivors of complex trauma and PTSD. I am passionate about empowering survivors to loosen the chains of trauma and move forward. I use EMDR, DBT, CPT and play therapy to help clients to overcome the inner pain of trauma and build a life that is safer and more grounded. I enjoy helping children through the use of Child Centered Play Therapy and Playful EMDR to support children through challenges like self-esteem, bullying and other school- related problems. With 25 years spent as an educator, I have stood in those hallways and know what kids face. Additionally, I enjoy working with parents to navigate the everyday challenges that arise in parenting in this digital age. I enjoy walking with adolescents and teens who struggle just to get up and go to school each day because I remember what that felt like when I was a teenager. I also enjoy walking with students who self -harm, struggle with suicide ideology, bullying, and navigating peer and parental relationships. I consider it an honor to walk along with Trauma Survivors as a certified Traumatologist. I have supported people in healing from sexual assault, traumatic accidents, profound grief, and many other life-altering events. I feel deeply honored to care for firefighters, police officers, and first responders impacted by they have seen on the job. I offer Animal Assisted Therapy with her French Bulldog, Zoey, who is especially comforting to all of the clients that I see.

Are you approaching a later-life transition — retirement, or grown children who suddenly act like they're the parent? Or navigating an overwhelming cancer diagnosis? I've been there, and now I'm here to help you redefine your new normal.

I'm Sonya T. Cruel, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years in the field. I've provided well-rounded care across healthcare, school, and faith-based settings — and my own experience as a three-time breast cancer survivor has taught me the kind of compassion, resilience, and hope that only comes from facing real challenges.

T. Cher Randall

T. Cher Randall

Therapist

Virtual • Kennesaw, GA


I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. Many clients come to me during chapters of life that feel confusing or chaotic. Together, we slow things down. We work to understand what's driving the pain, identify what you truly need, and develop practical skills to move forward with confidence and clarity.

My clinical background includes addiction counseling, family dynamics, grief work, trauma-informed care, and supporting clients who have experienced unstable relationships, emotional dysregulation, or long-standing stress. I provide a non-judgemental environment where honesty is welcomed, growth is supported, and you don't have to pretend to be ok.

Therapy with me is active- we talk, plan, reflect, and practice new ways of thinking and coping. You will always leave the session with insight, direction, and support you can apply to everyday life. If you are ready to start healing, reconnect with yourself, and build healthier relationships, I'm here to walk with you. Reach out to schedule a consultation.
