Bonnie Ingram
A curious, compassionate, and nurturing Psychologist.
Helping you create more fulfilling ways to live, love, and connect.

Bonnie’s work is grounded in the understanding that humans are biologically wired for emotional connection. Our relationships shape our sense of safety, belonging, well-being, and identity. When relationships feel disconnected, painful, or overwhelming, it can deeply impact every area of life. Equally, when relationships feel secure and connected, they can become a powerful source of healing, growth, and fulfilment.
Bonnie’s passion is helping couples and individuals better understand themselves and one another, strengthen
Qualifications and Background
Bonnie graduated with a Bachelor of Psychology with Honours from Griffith University in 2013 and has worked across government, community, and private practice settings with individuals, couples, and families.
Bonnie has worked in a variety of areas, including the treatment of forensic/criminogenic needs, mood disorders, trauma, relationship issues, supporting LGBTQ+ needs, and workplace stress.
Bonnie’s interest in relationship therapy grew through witnessing both the profound impact of relationship trauma and the healing that becomes possible when people learn new ways of connecting with themselves and those they love. She believes meaningful change can occur when people feel emotionally safe enough to explore vulnerability, communicate more openly, and develop healthier relational patterns.
