Trauma Intensives with
Bonnie McKee, LCSW

Welcome! I believe that everyone has the capacity for healing and resilience, and I am committed to supporting people in being able to live a life of growth, empowerment, enjoyment and fulfillment.

I have 25 years of extensive experience helping many people to recover from trauma and build a more fulfilling life. I specialize in helping heterosexual and LGBTQ+ adults of all ages heal from childhood trauma and traumatic life events at any stage of life. I am passionate about creating a safe and compassionate space for clients to learn and use effective therapies to help them heal and recover from trauma.

In my work with Trauma Intensives, I use a combination of evidence-based therapies, including Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping), Matrix Reimprinting Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to address a range of trauma-related issues, such as anxiety, overwhelm, depression, and relationship difficulties.

The effects of untreated trauma can hold us back from living the lives we want to live. As a trauma treatment practitioner, I have consistently seen that clients who work with effective trauma treatment methodologies can experience positive life-changing benefits, including:

  • Reduced anxiety and stress

  • Increased feelings of well-being

  • Reduced PTSD symptoms

  • Increased calm and relaxation

  • Enhanced emotional resilience

  • Decreased emotional reactivity

  • Increased ability for emotion regulation

  • More resourceful states of mind

  • Improvement in the quality of relationships

  • Increased feelings of self-compassion, self-worth, and self-confidence

  • Increased ability to change negative, limiting beliefs to more empowering, life-changing positive beliefs

  • Stronger feelings of self-agency to be able to pursue and accomplish goals

I welcome individuals who are seeking support with trauma-related challenges to reach out
