I’m Bonnie Ronstrom, a certified life coach, victim’s advocate, and pastoral counselor. My passion is to walk toward healing with those harmed by toxicity, narcissism, and spiritual abuse. I provide virtual, trauma-informed coaching, Christian counseling (non-medical), and consulting services.
I’m a married mom with three grown children. I enjoy walking with friends, going on nature-filled road trips with my family and paddleboarding.
To benefit my clients and respect their investment in healing, I consistently devote time and resources toward personal growth and increasing my effectiveness by networking with others, taking courses, self-care, consistently meeting with my own counselor, and staying up to date on the wide variety of useful and supportive resources in the prevention and recovery process.
