Hi, my name is Bonnie Lilly and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor and a Pastoral Counselor as well. I obtained my MA inn Professional Counseling from Liberty University in 2016; my M.A in Pastoral Counseling from Liberty University Baptist Theological Seminary in 2014; and a B.S. in Psychology with emphasis in Christian Counseling from the Liberty University in 2012. I am also certified as a Registered Play Therapist.
As a sister, mother, daughter, friend, and counselor, I believe that we are all relational beings and need relationships that are encouraging and uplifting! Everything is possible and our past does not determine our future. We can learn together and find a balance within our lives that promote positive growth and change!
I personally, draw from several different therapeutic approaches such as Client-Centered Play Therapy, Choice Therapy, Faith Based Counseling and Solution Focused Therapy; however I favor Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). I particularly enjoy working with individuals and couples through their traumas and interpersonal relationships.
My passion is to see healing and restoration to hurting people while helping people find their full potential and live life abundantly. I was born and raised in Corpus Christi, Texas, have three amazing adult children with one bonus son now, a grandson on the way and two awesome fur-babies.

Bonnie listened to me. She made me laugh. She reminded me that it is ok not be ok and that it is important for me to make myself a priority. She allowed me the space to process all the things that had been rattling around and around in my head. She offered concrete tools to move me forward which are essential for me.

Bonnie is wonderful! Counseling was mostly new to me, and I feel like she does a great job of listening while also promoting with comments and questions. She also is not afraid to gently challenge you, which I greatly appreciate. Highly recommend!
