Katherine Bonham , LPCC

Katherine Bonham has worked in mental health and addiction services since 2010 and has been a licensed clinician since 2013. She holds a BA in psychology and earned an MS in counseling with a graduate certificate in addictions studies in 2013. As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - LPCC - she combines formal training with ongoing professional development to support people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, and many other concerns.

Early in her career she contributed to research on trauma-informed care in group therapy settings, and that focus evolved into specialized training and practice with trauma. She emphasizes practical skill-building and psychoeducation so clients understand what interventions are being used, why they are chosen, and how those tools can apply to daily life. Over the years she has worked with clients from childhood through late life - ages 5 to 97 - across a wide range of diagnoses and settings.

Katherine values a straightforward, collaborative approach: the main requirements for work together are a willingness to try and an ability to be honest with oneself and the therapist. Outside of work she models many of the habits she encourages in therapy - regular exercise, time with friends and family, caring for her dog, experimenting with new recipes, and exploring the green spaces of the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. A former weightlifting coach reinforced the idea that small efforts can become lasting change, and she invites clients to let her join them on their next steps.
