Bonnie started working in mental health in 1995, practicing in many different settings, and then opened her private practice in 2014. She has worked in inpatient settings, outpatient settings, school based settings, group settings and outdoor experiential settings. Bonnie has had the privilege of helping individuals find healing after they have experienced traumatic events; one single event or multiple/ repeated events. Bonnie specializes in working with youth and adults, and she continues to see many different individuals for a variety of issues. Some of the issues people see Bonnie for include: anxiety, depression, stress, nightmares, panic attacks, avoidance of people/ places, inattention, and difficulty with dealing with life pressures. Bonnie uses different techniques including art, play, outdoor experiential therapy, various “talk” therapies, as well as AT-EMDR to help you process the traumatic events that have occurred. Bonnie helps individuals feel better and return to a life that has greater meaning and purpose. Together, you can work towards creating the story you want for your life.
