Definitely recommend. Bonnie is fantastic and very talented at what she does. She has helped me learn so much about myself. She can help guide the conversation where you need to get to on your journey and has very useful insights. She never assumes to know for sure what is best but is an expert at assisting you to get where you need to be. And somehow has the time management to guide the conversation in a way where you learn what is important for you to learn at the time, reflect on and internalize it, and solidify that understanding within the time of each session.

I see any negative reviews at the time of this review were just speaking about the intake process. I can assure you that those negative reviews are not representative of the quality of care.

Would encourage to contact by phone as emails can easily be redirected to junk or spam folders and may not be seen right away. Based on which location you are near and what issues you may be facing, you may have the option of seeing a registered therapist for $60 an hr or a trained practicum student for $30 an hr. Depending on their funding and your income, they may be able to lower this. Sessions are usually an hr bi-weekly, or could be weekly if they have the availability. They will try their best to work with your schedule. I've found my therapist to be excellent and very insightful. She's made a lot of really helpful onservations and suggestions, book recommendations, and will occasionally assign "homework" she thinks might be helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Too bad I have to give any stars at all!!!! Husband emailed for service. Was pleasantly surprised when someone emailed back right away with some appointment times. Should have known better...husband emailed back saying he would be interested and asked where to meet and...radio silence. Should have known better. Great job guys!!!

Made deal with me due to my finances and then after paying and attending a few sessions, changed the deal entirely and I lost out on therapy required for my mental health.
