Hello! My name is Dr. Bonnie Floyd. I'm a licensed clinical psychologist, with a specialization in health psychology. My expertise is assisting individuals who are diagnosed with chronic illness to live more fulfilling lives.
I completed my Ph.D. in Clinical Health Psychology, through a program jointly offered by Albert Einstein College of Medicine/Yeshiva University, Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology. I have nearly twenty years of clinical experience, working in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
I've had experience in psychological pain management, providing both biofeedback and psychotherapy. For the past fifteen years, I've specialized in working with geriatric patients; I've provided comprehensive neuropsychological assessments, to diagnose forms of dementia. More recently, I've been providing supportive psychotherapy sessions for residents in nursing homes.
Last November, I published Remarkable Journey: My Dual Perspectives as Doctor and Patient. Having specialized in coping with chronic illness during my doctoral training, I am now managing chronic conditions of my own. This offers a unique perspective for those who are struggling to adapt to chronic conditions.
My theoretical orientation is cognitive-behavioral in nature: I assist clients with the identification of maladaptive patterns of thinking, as well as provide training with the substitution of more adaptive thoughts. Similarly, I assist clients with recognizing when behaviors are no longer useful for their current situations; I provide help with forming new, more adaptive behaviors. I have a longstanding interest in mood disorders, especially major depressive disorder.
I would be honored to have the opportunity to work together on your current concerns. I commend individuals for the courage to reach out for professional assistance when necessary.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Floyd. In 7 months of meeting with her weekly, she’s provided more help and guidance than any psychologist I’ve seen over the last 25 years. She listens, offers reasonable guidance and suggestions, and has made me feel heard in a way I’ve never felt before. I can honestly say, I’m a different person today, due to her help. She is someone I will remember for the rest of my life.

For my first time going to therapy or even just speaking about whats on my mind, Dr. Floyd is amazing. She answers quickly and her responses are impeccable to understanding how i am feeling. I am more than grateful with coming across Dr. Floyd, only regret is not coming across her sooner.

Dr. Floyd has been such a great help for me. I've been going through some tough times (family related) and I decided to give BetterHelp a try last year because I knew I couldn't handle this on my own as I usually do. Through many conversations with Dr. Floyd, I've gone on this journey of self discovery and I could safely say that I am now progressing to a better state of mind. I'm very grateful for her help and for everything I've learned from her over this past year.

I had trouble with a few counselors but Dr. Floyd made me feel like she truly cared about what was going on with me and my personal situation. She strived to make me feel important in the process of my own wellbeing and helped me to find the path that I've needed for a long time. It's a long road, and there are so many forks, but she got me to where I needed to be and I'm ever so grateful for that.
