Bonnie is very attentive, proactive, and experienced, and makes each session so productive. I've been to a few therapists in the past and no one has helped me make so much progress in so short of a period of time. I highly recommend her services and her mindfulness-based approach!

Bonnie is attentive, smart, skilled, and has a sense of humor, which is very important!

Written by H.E. on Oct 16, 2019 after counseling with Bonnie for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting issues, and career difficulties

Bonnie starts each session with a mindfulness exercise that helps you slow down and focus on what’s in the moment. She provides you ways of approaching everyday crises and experiences in a way that brings your best self out and helps you get in touch with what you really value. Acceptance can be difficult but she’ll help you find it more often. A really nice contrast to cognitive behavioral therapy that I personally find more useful.

Bonnie is an amazing soul with the ability to really make you step outside of yourself and see things from different perspectives. I have been seeing her for almost a year now and if not for her I would still be stuck in the same terrible place I was a year ago. She has helped me immensely and continues to every week.

Bonnie is very observant and she creates a comfortable, friendly and safe environment for exploration of ideas, concepts, and creative ways to understand situations. I recommend her because she is very astute, knowledgeable, experienced, grounded, a professional in counseling, and I like her personality, very warm, and considerate. I will continue with her to complete my transition and growth in the area of non violent communication and conflict resolution. Thank you for all that you do Bonnie!

Written by R.A. on Jun 13, 2017 after counseling with Bonnie for 1 month on issues concerning stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self esteem, anger, and career

My experience with Bonnie has been extremely beneficial. She has helped me to work with my own awareness and allow myself the forgiveness I've always needed. She's very patient and quick to respond, but not so quick as to not have put thought into what she says. You can tell she cares and wants to help her clients achieve growth outside of the counseling. BetterHelp has given me a way to reach out at my low points when traditional counseling couldn't. I finally feel like I'm making progress.

Written by W.I. on Mar 22, 2017 after counseling with Bonnie for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, and self esteem

I like the way Bonnie reviews what I am trying to say and then provides advice. Doing so, helps me be sure she is interpreting what I am saying the way I intended. However, I feel her advice can be to general. I would like more specific strategies that I could try.
She did a good job getting me out of crisis mode and to a place where I feel I may have the ability to progress.
