Getting to know Bonnie Mende
Hello, my name is Bonnie. I am a 58-year-old mom of 17-year-old twin daughters who plan to attend college in about a year. Yep, raising teenagers is no joke! Parenting has its fair share of hills and valleys. I have been married for 22 years. Are you finding that maintaining relationships is a struggle at times? Do you need someone to listen and truly hear you? I want to build rapport and understanding with each client.
I hold a Master’s in Counseling from California State University, Sacramento, and have worked with clients facing a variety of issues and concerns. My experience includes supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, OCD, family and job stress, domestic violence, complex trauma, PTSD, child custody issues, teen challenges, parent-child concerns, and difficulties with substance abuse.
My therapy is individualized according to what each client wants and needs. My goal is to align with my clients so they feel supported in their lives. I use therapy modalities that include compassion-focused, solution-focused, multicultural, humanistic, strength-based, Christian, mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral, and dialectical therapies.
My strengths lie in my ability to put people at ease. I am honest, straightforward, down to earth, value authenticity, and enjoy getting to know all kinds of people while refraining from judgment. Outside of work, I enjoy music—I sing and play the piano—as well as traveling, reading, and spending time with my dog and two cats.
I look forward to meeting you. Let’s talk!
What should a new client know about working with you?
Clients will feel heard, and will move toward finding their own answers over time. It is my job to support clients as they find their own solutions to struggles they may be having. At times I may make suggestions but I respect each client in their decisions.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
