More About Bonnie

My therapeutic approach involves collaboratively cultivating open and non-judgemental communication with empathetic understanding and empowering active self-work through critical thinking and self-exploration. Through the therapy process, we will focus on rediscovering your strengths, individually or in a coupled partnership, and work towards increasing genuine, attentive, and complementary dialogues within your interpersonal relationships and with yourself. By clarifying and enacting self-compassion, healthy reciprocal boundaries, and discovering effective coping strategies, you can gain more insight and confidence to enact the choices that construct your lived-world.

I received my Master’s degree in Existential-Phenomenological Psychology at Seattle University in 2020 and currently hold a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate title working towards full licensure. I hold six years of experience working within various settings of community mental health with children, adolescents, and adults, providing individual, group, and family therapy. I am trained in the evidence-based practices of DBT, CBT, ACT, and MI, and incorporate mixed-modalities of existential, humanistic, strengths-based, and solution-focused therapy.
