Bonnie centers sessions on each person’s needs, starting with what feels most urgent. She uses a blend of client-centered care and evidence-based practices to help people manage symptoms and make everyday changes.
Background and approach
Sessions include teaching concrete tools, practicing new ways of responding, and checking progress together. Her mindfulness background includes teaching Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Mindful Self-Compassion, and she brings meditation experience into therapy when useful. That work is often paired with cognitive-behavioral techniques to address worry, panic, sleep problems, and low mood.
Trauma-focused methods are used when past events keep showing up in current life. Bonnie works with a wide range of concerns beyond anxiety, including grief, anger, relationship and family issues, parenting strain, caregiver stress, and life transitions. She also supports people facing chronic stress, compassion fatigue, and mood conditions like depression or bipolar challenges.
Practical coping strategies and skill-building are frequent parts of her approach. Therapy is offered to people located in Ohio through online formats. Bonnie will collaborate with each person to set goals and decide which techniques to try first.
Her style is calm, direct, and focused on helping clients move toward clearer, more manageable days.
Mindfulness and practical tools through online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's goals. It helps when someone needs a compassionate space to talk, clarify priorities, and try changes at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches specific ways to notice and shift thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety, panic, or low mood. It is useful for managing worry, sleep difficulties, and panic attacks.Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will work with the person to choose which methods to try first based on needs, goals, and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time so techniques that aren’t helpful are dropped and new ones are added as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people practice skills together in real time while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Chat or text can fit brief check-ins during a work break or serve as a way to get support between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to attend sessions from different locations and schedules while still using mindfulness and CBT tools in day-to-day life.
