Philosophy

Open Skies Counseling Services provides compassionate, evidence-based counseling for young adults, women of all ages and educators, helping individuals overcome anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, life transitions, and more. I strive to create a safe welcoming space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions without judgement. I enjoy working with young adults, women of all ages and educators. I am a school counselor that offers private practice therapy.

Welcome to Open Skies Counseling Services

My name is Sondra Chamberlain. I was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest and enjoy providing online counseling for Washington residents. I have always been passionate about caring for others. I have my undergraduate degree from Northwest University in Youth Ministry. For years I worked with teenagers in the Seattle and Tacoma area. My husband and I have been married for 23 years. We have three boys (young men now) who are 20, 18 and 15 years old. As my children started to get older, I saw the need to find a career that I could continue to help and serve others so, I went back to school to get my master's in education to be a school counselor. I am currently an elementary school counselor and also work as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate. I enjoy working with clients to care for each individual. I take a personalized approach, meeting you where you are and helping you take the next steps toward emotional well-being and freedom. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, or simply need a place to be heard, I am here to support you with compassion, understanding and practical tools for change.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Please email openskiescounseling@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question. I try to respond within 24 hours to all inquiries. 

Yes! I have a few more openings in my schedule that are available. Early mornings or late afternoon and evening appointments are available. I am a school counselor from 8am-4pm daily so that impacts my availability. 

Open Skies Counseling Services offers individual counseling for women, young adults, and educators. I also offer coaching and parenting support. Coaching and parenting support are not billable to insurance. 

During your first session with Open Skies Counseling Services, I will ask you questions to get to know you better and understand what brings you to counseling. You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the counseling process. The intake appointment is longer, 60-75 minutes, so that we have enough time to go over the intake paperwork.

A counseling session with Open Skies Counseling Services typically lasts for 50 minutes.

Currently I accept Regence and Premera Insurance. Please check with your insurance regarding your deductible. Once our session ends, I bill your insurance and then bill you for the remaining amount. You will place a card on file that I can charge directly.

  • First Appointment/Intake: $175
  • Regular Sessions: $150
  • Life Coaching Sessions: $120 (not billable to insurance)
  • Parenting Support: $120 (not billable to insurance)

  • Therapy (Clinical): Often looks backward to understand how your past, trauma or family dynamics influence your present day. If focuses on healing, recovery and stability. Therapy includes ongoing support, whether that's weekly, bi-weekly or monthly. This service is billable to insurance.
  • Life Coaching (Forward focused): Primarily looks at where you are now and where you want to be. It focuses on strategy, performance and goal setting. This can be one session or multiple sessions over time. Life coaching is not billable to insurance. 

The type of parenting support I offer that is not billable to insurance is coaching parents on a specific issue or problem they are facing with their child. If more support is needed, I may encourage parents to become a new client for counseling. Depending on the situation, some parenting support is billable to insurance. 

With new counseling clients I like to meet weekly for a season. After we have established a trusting therapeutic relationship, I let clients decide what is needed for the season they are in - whether they want to continue therapy weekly, every other week or monthly. How often we meet is determined by the client for life coaching and parent support.
