Norma Bonet, LCSW

Norma Bonet is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of experience helping people navigate family conflict, trauma, grief, and parenting challenges. She offers a calm, respectful presence and focuses on listening so clients can name what matters most to them.

Her approach centers on creating space for honest conversation without judgment. Sessions emphasize understanding feelings, clarifying practical steps, and building strengths that fit everyday life. Norma aims to help people feel heard and find ways forward that match their family and caregiving responsibilities.

Norma uses client-centered work to follow each person’s pace and priorities. She also draws on solution-focused techniques to set small, achievable goals and on trauma-focused methods when past events affect current wellbeing. These approaches are used together to address issues like attachment concerns, abandonment, and post-traumatic stress.

She has supported people facing pregnancy and childbirth transitions, caregiver stress, loneliness, communication breakdowns, and forgiveness work. Norma speaks English and Spanish and practices in Florida as an LCSW - licensed clinical social worker.

Norma encourages straightforward steps toward change. If you are managing a major life change, parenting strain, or the aftermath of trauma, she offers steady support and practical conversation to help you move forward.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's concerns. It means the therapist follows the client's lead, names what they hear, and helps people explore feelings and priorities in straightforward language. This approach helps when someone needs space to process family issues, grief, or caregiving strain.

Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical steps that move a person toward clear goals. Sessions often identify one or two changes to try between meetings and measure progress. This is useful for addressing communication problems, parenting challenges, and coping with life changes.

The therapist will work with each person to figure out which approach or mix of approaches fits best. Deciding on a method is collaborative - goals, preferences, and daily demands guide the plan. The therapist will adjust methods as needed based on what is helpful.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy caregiving schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people choose times that work around work or family responsibilities without promising a specific format.
