Five Stones Therapy

Bonita is amazing. I had the privilege of working with her in therapy for two years and learned so much during that time. I’m so grateful for the support, guidance, and care that Bonita provided throughout our time together. She truly helped me grow and heal in ways I never thought possible. I am a much healthier version of myself today and I’m so grateful for the positive impact she had on my life!

Bonita helped me achieve the goals I had when I entered therapy. She assisted me in obtaining skills that will help me solve future problems. EMDR was so helpful in my journey. I never realized just how effective it could be until I experienced it. Definitely glad I took the steps to go through EMDR. The breathing techniques provided to help with anxiety or when panic attacks happen have also helped me.

“I started therapy with Bonita the traditional way. After two sessions she offered the Intensive Program and I jumped on it right away due to my busy lifestyle. I chose the 3-day intensive and I cannot believe the change in my thoughts and beliefs about myself. Bonita used several interventions, reflections, expressive, art, and of course EMDR, but I think the client workbook prepared me the most since I was able to connect the dots to my early childhood. Six weeks post-intensive and I still feel great! I shared with Bonita the intensive was like six months of therapy in three days. Highly recommend, and grateful my friend recommended Bonita to me.”

“I sought out EMDR therapy after an unsuccessful attempt with another therapist. Once I met with Bonita, we developed goals for my therapy and began the process. Through therapy I had a better understanding of how to feel, listen to, and process my feelings, both mental and physical. I was only in therapy for a little over two months and completed my treatment plan. This was a wonderful experience for me.”

“My therapist, Bonita Ashe, has been extremely helpful in assisting me with trauma and grief from my past. She was adept at helping me build a trusting relationship with her. This was extremely necessary for me. Being able to be open about issues that I needed to address was imperative to my healing process. I appreciate her understanding nature and the ability she has to identify the situation at hand and directly deal with the pain/grief/confusion it presents. I have never been a person who thought that I could be helped by counseling. I was mistaken in that assessment. I feel that I was greatly helped. I told Bonita that she helped me untangle the cobwebs that had developed in my mind due to multiple trauma and grief incidents in my life. I am forever grateful that Bonita was the person I chose to walk through the haunted hallways of my past. She is an amazing therapist and even more so an incredible person.”

“I came into counseling with Bonita for experiencing crippling anxiety and feeling unsafe all the time. I was in survival mode in almost every aspect of my life including my relationships and my spirituality. The counseling process helped me to explore the depths of my experiences, how they impacted how I view myself, and what I would rather believe about myself. I struggled at first to find something positive to believe about myself that felt true. With Bonita’s care and challenges, I began to see my worth, to believe I am loved, and to be confident that I am safe. I am immeasurably grateful for the way God used Bonita in my healing journey. His presence and wisdom within her is what makes the difference.”

“I found Bonita’s knowledge, guidance and insight most helpful. With her guidance I learned to listen to who I am, realize my value and communicate more effectively. She always got where I was, met me there and gently but persistently helped me grow into a better place/person. I obtained skills to help me solve future problems that previously had me stuck. Bonita involved me in treatment planning from the beginning and showed interest in helping to define my needs.”
