About Patricia Bonnard

I help you tap into your authentic self, exploit your strengths, gain confidence, get unstuck, make desired changes, and achieve your desired personal transformation. I'm a certified International Coaching Federation (ICF) Leadership Coach and a certified Martha Beck Life Coach. I'm trained in Focusing and Byron Katie’s The Work and various meditation, somatic and shamanic practices. I'm also a Master Practitioner/Instructor in various energy healing modalities, and a certified aromatherapist. I blog extensively and customize virtual and in-person talks, workshops, and presentations.  

I stress a customized approach for you, using the best combination of modalities for you. Your personal preferences, process, and pace are always held with deep respect. I cultivate an open, informal safe space to facilitate reflection, learning, change, and self-care. When appropriate, mind-body and somatic practices can help you ground, center, reflect deeply, gain access to embodied wisdom, and move forward confidently, creatively, and authentically.

I have a deep interest in, and an ability, to empathize and appreciate different people, their ways, and perspectives. I attribute this to my multicultural upbringing, which was honed during a 20-year career, working in international development and emergency response throughout Latin America, Africa, and Central Asia. Using various meditations, somatic practices, and energy healing, I learned better self-care and stress management in challenging situations. Recognizing the power of personal transformation, I  made the decision to transition from a global focus to facilitating change on the individual level. As a coach and energy healer, I believe everyone can transform through practical, applied practices. Anyone who wants to transform in small or big ways should be empowered to do so.
