Magdalena Bonk

Magdalena Bonk

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


I'm Magdalena, and I've been doing this work for 14 years — across schools, community

mental health, and private practice. What that span of experience gave me is range: I've

worked with people in serious crisis and people who are simply stuck, and I've learned

that the gap between those two things is smaller than most people think. I trained at

UNC Wilmington and have spent my career working with adults across the full

complexity of what life throws at people — anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, parenting,

major life transitions, and identity. I offer therapy in both English and Polish, and I'm

LGBTQ+-affirming. I accept insurance and offer a sliding scale. My goal isn't to be your

therapist forever — it's to give you what you need so you can get on with your life.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life, by applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques. If you are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or your just ready to move in a new direction in your life. Live life, free your mind..


Amongst my areas of expertise are individual, couples and families; bereavement; anxiety and depression. My approach is an interactive, solution-focused therapist. My approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively addressing personal life challenges. I offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client,


At the core of my practice is my work with African Americans, addressing colorism and internalized racism and how it affect your interpersonal relationships. Helping clients recognize how the complexion of your skin plays a role in who you become, how you are viewed and how it affects your mood.

Your brain is a physical organ — and like any organ, it can heal, and change. Your struggles aren't character flaws; they're brain biology, and our brains can heal and grow.

I offer neuroscience-based psychiatric care via telehealth throughout Connecticut, drawing on 27 years across the state's healthcare landscape — ICUs, ERs, home visits, schools, and communities. Awareness is the first step in healing.
