About Bonnie

Bonnie Spicer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee. She uses practical, empathy-driven methods to help people manage strong emotions and everyday stress. Bonnie focuses on clear tools clients can use right away to feel calmer and more in control.

She brings seven years of clinical experience to sessions. That experience includes helping people with anxiety, depression, anger, addiction concerns, and the strain that comes from caregiving and work stress.

Background and approach

She also supports people facing grief, trauma, and major life changes. Bonnie draws from several approaches to match what each person needs. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build new habits.

She also blends acceptance-based strategies to help people live by their values when emotions run high. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. People can expect to talk through immediate concerns, try small experiments between sessions, and practice skills for coping at home.

Bonnie encourages realistic steps so progress feels manageable. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space for exploring difficult topics like intimacy, family stress, ADHD, and identity concerns. Bonnie helps clients set priorities, reduce overwhelm, and find clearer ways to move forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that move life in those directions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses straightforward exercises to change patterns that cause distress. Both approaches are useful for concerns like anxiety, anger, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Bonnie works together with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and daily routine. That can mean trying a skill for a few sessions and adjusting the plan based on what helps most.

Online work offers practical benefits for people with busy lives. Video calls let for real-time conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or be easier when bandwidth is low. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, practicing skills between sessions, or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to stay consistent while balancing work, caregiving, or health needs.
