Sometimes therapy begins with the sense that something needs attention — a shift in mood, stress that won’t ease, or patterns that feel harder to manage.

Therapy offers a supportive space to slow down and make sense of what’s happening.I’m Whitney Bonds, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and I work with adults in their who are navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, trauma, adjustments, burnout, and life transitions. My goal is to create a space where you feel accepted, understood, and supported — without pressure to have everything figured out.

 

My style is warm, energetic, and grounded. I bring curiosity, compassion, and structure into sessions while also recognizing the grit it takes to do meaningful therapeutic work. Therapy with me is collaborative and honest, with room for both depth and practicality.

What It’s Like to Work With Me

Clients often describe me as bubbly, validating, and easy to talk to, while also being thoughtful and direct when it matters. I recognize how vulnerable therapy can be and aim to create a space that feels safe, collaborative, and respectful of your pace. Sessions are tailored to your needs. Some days we process emotions or explore patterns; other days we focus on practical tools, skill-building, or gentle challenges to what’s keeping you stuck.

A Few Common Questions

 

Do I need to know exactly what I want to work on?
No. Many people begin therapy feeling unsure. Clarity often develops through the process. 

 

Is it okay if I’m nervous to start?
Yes — that’s very common. We’ll move at a pace that feels safe and supportive.

 

What if I’m not “good at” talking about my feelings?
That’s completely okay. Therapy isn’t about saying the right thing — it’s about noticing what comes up and working with it at your pace. I’ll help guide the process so you’re not doing it alone.

 

Is therapy only for when things are “really bad”?
Not at all. Many people come to therapy to better understand themselves, build resilience, or prevent patterns from becoming more overwhelming over time.

 

How do I know if you’re the right therapist for me?
The therapeutic relationship matters. If you’re looking for a therapist who is warm, engaged, structured, and honest — while still being compassionate — we may be a good fit. It’s also okay if it takes time to decide.

My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel welcomed, understood, and empowered— a space that supports resilience, insight, and meaningful change. If you’re ready to begin, I’d be honored to work with you.
