Bonnie Spicer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee who focuses on attachment-based work as part of a compassionate, person-centered practice.

Online support

How attachment work and therapy tools translate to online care

Bonnie combines attachment-based ideas with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people understand relationship patterns and take values-driven action. Attachment-based work looks at how early and current connections shape reactions and helps people try new ways of relating. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Bonnie discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts techniques from CBT, ACT, or attachment work to fit the issue at hand. She helps clients test what works in everyday life and adjusts plans together based on feedback and results.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is good for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging allow shorter check-ins between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.
