Bonnie McClurd, LPC

Bonnie McClurd is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, and family conflicts. Bonnie believes clients are the experts on their own stories and that their strengths guide the work forward.

In sessions she listens first and then helps set clear, practical goals. Bonnie uses short-term tools and deeper conversations depending on what each person needs. She pays attention to common life strains like grief, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and the pressures that come with aging and geriatric issues.

People who come to Bonnie often want straightforward coping skills and honest feedback. She draws on client-centered ideas to keep the work focused on the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, while Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when relationships and attachment are central.

Bonnie also applies Solution-Focused and Existential approaches when clients want to make concrete changes or examine life direction. Her style is collaborative and practical, inviting people to try new ways of responding to difficult situations. She encourages small steps that lead to clearer choices.

Her background includes supporting concerns such as depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, and coping with life changes. If you are ready to start, she asks for an honest conversation about goals so sessions match what matters most to you.

How Bonnie’s approaches work for online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and clarifies their own goals for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will talk together about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Bonnie tailors the mix of approaches so sessions match each person's needs and pace.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people use written tools, worksheets, and in-session practice from wherever they are, which many find helpful when working on coping skills and relationship patterns.
