About Bonnie

Bonnie Jackman is a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) with three decades of experience providing practical, goal-focused care. Her practice emphasizes Client-Centered and Solution-Focused approaches, helping clients set clear objectives and work steadily toward resolving specific concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, and ADHD.

Background and approach

Bonnie’s background includes extensive work with children and school systems, which informs her understanding of academic and peer-related challenges. She has supported people through crises, life transitions, and losses, and brings experience addressing LGBTQ issues, parenting struggles, sleep and eating concerns, grief, trauma, and anger.

Bonnie favors brief, intermittent therapy when appropriate, offering targeted interventions for those seeking short-term progress as well as options for longer engagement when more time is needed. Located in Massachusetts, she offers a collaborative style that blends evidence-based techniques with practical problem-solving to help clients move toward clearer functioning and daily coping skills.

Practical Therapies Delivered Online

Bonnie uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients’ goals and perspectives guide the work; this approach helps people clarify what matters most to them and build confidence in making changes. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete strategies for reducing anxiety, improving mood, and addressing patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist discusses options with each client, tailoring methods to match individual needs, goals, and preferences so that therapy feels feasible and focused whether someone seeks brief, goal-directed help or longer-term support.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and varying comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit sessions into school or work routines and to continue therapeutic momentum during transitions or times when meeting in person is difficult.
