About Bonnie
Bonnie Chase is a licensed clinician in Vermont with 20 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with mood shifts, addictions, anxiety, stress, and anger. Bonnie aims to make starting therapy a manageable step for anyone feeling unsure about seeking help.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what the person wants to change or understand.
Background and approach
Bonnie listens closely and works with each person to set realistic goals for progress. Her background includes long experience supporting people facing trauma, grief, and relationship strain. She also helps those managing sleep problems, parenting stress, career transitions, and compassion fatigue.
Her work covers both emotional challenges and practical day-to-day coping skills. Bonnie takes a collaborative approach. She helps people notice patterns, try new ways of responding, and build on small successes.
Conversations are practical and paced to each persons comfort level. She respects each persons identity and life story while tailoring the work to their needs. Therapy with Bonnie can include short-term problem-solving or longer work on deeper issues.
Sessions use clear language and aim to leave people with concrete steps they can try between meetings. Getting started is framed as a first step, not a permanent commitment.
What Bonnie works with
Everything Bonnie lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in Bonnie's practice.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Bonnie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that adapt well to remote sessions. One common approach focuses on recognizing unhelpful patterns in thought and behavior and practicing alternative responses; this helps with anxiety, anger, and mood challenges. Another approach centers on building coping skills and small routines to improve sleep, manage stress, and reduce cravings related to addictions. These methods aim to give concrete tools people can use between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Bonnie will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that match those aims, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The process is collaborative and paced to what the client needs and prefers.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different lifestyles. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit brief updates or steady support into a busy day. These options provide flexibility for people balancing work, parenting, or other commitments.
