Bonnie Spicer , LPC

Bonnie Spicer is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Tennessee who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and other life challenges. She blends practical tools with a warm, person-focused manner so clients can find clearer ways forward. Bonnie often supports people dealing with relationship strain, grief, addiction concerns, and issues tied to identity and self-worth, including women's issues.

Clients can expect straightforward conversations and actionable steps during sessions. Bonnie uses methods that help people notice what matters, change unhelpful thinking, and practice new skills in daily life. She also pays attention to how early attachment and relationship patterns shape current struggles.

Her practice covers a broad set of concerns such as sleeping and eating difficulties, caregiving stress, trauma and abuse, anger, and coping with life changes like aging or medical challenges. She frequently addresses workplace stress, career questions, and compassion fatigue for those in helping roles. Bonnie also supports people exploring intimacy, body image, ADHD, and co-occurring issues.

Bonnie brings seven years of clinical experience to her work as an LPC. She aims to tailor each session to the person's goals, whether that means learning coping skills, making behavioral changes, or finding new ways to connect with others. Sessions use plain language and stay focused on practical progress.

People meet with Bonnie through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. All sessions are conducted in English and are scheduled to fit each person's needs and availability.

How Bonnie's Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take committed action toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. ACT is often used for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where someone wants clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors through practical exercises and homework tasks. CBT can help with sleep and eating problems, anxiety, and mood regulation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections, and it helps people understand and shift those patterns to improve intimacy and communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Bonnie will listen to goals and preferences, explain methods in plain language, and partner with each person to decide which approaches to try. That collaborative process can include blending elements from several therapies to match what feels most helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skill practice and deeper dialogue. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support, or when a written format feels easier for expressing thoughts. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain regular contact between sessions.
