About Sonia Brunson and Banner Safety Practices

Care Philosophy

As an Addiction Medicine provider, my approach to care delivery is to improve the quality of life and enhance wellness for my patients. I believe in the collaborative approach in treating patients with substance use disorders and that they are treated with dignity and compassion.
Treating addiction involves a multifaceted approach involving science, research, wellness, and collaboration. Recovery is a journey, and the patient is the driver in their personal journey.
At our clinic, we have a comprehensive team of addiction medicine providers, psychotherapists, social workers, peer advocacy and wellness coaches to help treat, educate, and support our patients through their recovery and provide the best outcomes for them, their families and loved ones.

Specializing In

Addiction Medicine, Women’s Health

Interests & Activities

I am passionate and always looking to learn from and educate others about addiction medicine and substance use disorders. On my spare time, I enjoy going on walks with my family, hiking, exploring different national parks, cooking (and eating), and reading.

All Banner facilities are pleased to provide interpretation services to our patients and their companions for no charge - just ask when you arrive.

    When she asks, How are you doing today, she REALLY means it. It's not done as greeting, she is really interested in how I am. She talks to me and is very much interested and listens to what I say. She is very knowledgeable, compassionate, and down to earth. I feel she gives me the same care she would give to her own mother!
