Meet the Team
Growing Potential LLC highly values what Bonnie Badenoch calls, "I see you and I'm here". Through connecting with others, we support and guide them to unlocking their potential to thrive. We strongly believe that every person has the innate ability to heal and thrive when they can connect with themselves on an intuitive, cognitive, and somatic level. This involves connections between the body, the brain, and thoughts or perceptions.
Our job is to work ourselves out of a job. We are constantly learning new ways to deepen the therapeutic process to help therapists and clients shift the deepest root of their problems so that they can be empowered and overcome their challenges as quickly and deeply as possible. When we integrate our mind and body, we can tap into our intuition, and the rest flows from there.
Cultivating the next generation of therapists, Growing Potential LLC provides supervision, consultation, and training. We are an active internship site and are building our team of inspired therapists.

Supervisor, Consultant, and Mentor
As a registered play therapy supervisor (RPT-S), Certified Synergetic Play Therapy Supervisor, and EMDRia approved Consultant, I support interns and therapists to master their art.

Walking my own Path of Healing
I often tell others that I am qualified by experience. I have my own unique story of trauma and healing. My own healing has given birth to my sense of purpose in sharing the joy of achieving wholeness with others. Everything I do and teach, I have experienced myself as a client and as a therapist.

EMDR Therapy
When I learned about EMDR for the first time as an undergraduate Psychology student I thought it was voodo. Having an EMDR therapist who helped me integrate and heal my own trauma gave me the passion to become an EMDR therapist and consultant.
-
Synergetic Play Therapy
I learned to "come home" to myself and my heart with SPT. Grounded in science, and deeply intuitive, SPT has become a way of life and my lens for the world. The skills I learned through SPT have become foundational to my therapy, consultation, and supervision.

Community
No one is an island. I guide Growing Potential LLC to be active in the community. Supporting schools, our Childrens Advocacy Center, and other community groups and non-profits, I believe we are all part of a larger system.

Being a Therapist
Being in private practice can be isolating...even being in community mental health can be challenging! Creating support systems for therapists through consultation and supervision not only hones skills, it provides depth in connection for others.
