About Bonnie Pinto-Swift

Bonnie Pinto-Swift brings 40 years of clinical experience helping adults navigate difficult transitions, personal crises, and long-term challenges. She has worked with both younger and older adults in a range of settings, addressing job-related and peer-related stresses, responding to psychiatric histories, and supporting people who are coping with complex life situations. Her practice includes assistance for adults and elderly individuals who live alone, guidance on decisions about group care or nursing and rest home placement, and practical support for managing finances and setting personal goals.

Bonnie also supports clients who are considering school and career choices, or who are searching for greater meaning and purpose in their lives. Her background includes hands-on experience with the pressures of moving, buying, and selling homes, and she helps people manage that common major life stressor with techniques to reduce anxiety and preserve well-being.

Therapy with Bonnie is collaborative and client-directed. She encourages each person to name the problem they want to address and to set the goals they wish to achieve, then works alongside them to identify appropriate strategies and an approach that feels comfortable. That process may unfold differently for someone in crisis than for someone seeking ongoing change or a supportive space to sort through decisions.

She holds the LICSW credential, which stands for Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, and is experienced in helping clients build skills, make decisions, and regain a sense of confidence and purpose in their lives.
