Trauma-Informed Christian Counseling for Narcissistic and Spiritual Abuse

I work with adults navigating narcissistic abuse, spiritual abuse, and complex relational trauma. These dynamics often leave people silenced, confused, or caught in patterns that are difficult to untangle. Whether the harm unfolded within a relationship, family system, or a group context, I provide a steady, trauma-informed space where truth can be named without pressure, defensiveness, or shame. Together, we clarify what is happening, begin to unwind the layers, and build a thoughtful path toward real restoration.

For those who desire a Christ-centered approach, Christian counseling is integrated carefully and trauma-informed, with attention to the harm you have experienced.

About Me

I’m Bonnie Ronstrom, a certified life coach, victim’s advocate, and pastoral counselor. I specialize in walking with those harmed by toxicity, narcissism, and spiritual abuse as they move toward healing.

How This Work Helps Untangle Narcissistic and Spiritual Abuse

One of the hardest parts of narcissistic and spiritual abuse is how difficult it can be to find real understanding. Many people arrive after trying to explain what has been happening, only to feel misunderstood, minimized, or told they are overreacting. Gaslighting, betrayal, and shifting narratives can leave you questioning your instincts and doubting your own perception of reality. These dynamics are often confusing by design.

This work slows things down so the patterns can be seen clearly. Together we sort truth from distortion, name the manipulation at work, and begin untangling the layers of confusion these systems create. We also address the nervous system impacts and “trauma brain” effects that often accompany prolonged relational harm, the fog, hypervigilance, exhaustion, and difficulty thinking clearly that many survivors experience.

Not everyone needs the same starting point. Some people need clarity about what is happening. Others need help stabilizing their nervous system. Others are ready to process grief, betrayal, or spiritual harm. This work meets you where you are and focuses on what is most pressing, building steady clarity and a realistic path forward that fits your situation, whether the harm unfolded in an individual relationship, a family system, or a group context.

What Working Together Looks Like

Sessions are designed to be a steady, non-judgmental space where your autonomy is respected and your safety is the priority. Because narcissistic and spiritual abuse often involve a loss of control, the work moves in a way that returns agency to you.

Private and Accessible
Sessions take place virtually by phone or video, allowing you to meet from the privacy of your own space without the pressure of travel or public settings.

Paced by You
We move only as quickly as you feel ready. There is no expectation that you share your entire history all at once. Early work often focuses on grounding, stabilizing the nervous system, and making sense of what is currently happening.

Collaborative and Direct
We work together to name the dynamics at play and untangle the confusion they create. You remain the expert on your own life. My role is to bring a clear framework and trauma-informed perspective that helps you see the patterns more accurately.

Christ-Centered Support
For those who desire it, spiritual care can be integrated in a way that honors your faith while remaining attentive to the ways faith or spiritual authority may have been misused.

Simple Online Booking
Appointments can be scheduled through a private online portal so you can choose times that work for you without the pressure of coordinating schedules back and forth.
