Unparalleled Grief Coaching...

"Here's to your beautiful resilience!" ~Diane Bonilla, MA, LPC

Finding Hope, Emotional Liberation and Resilience After Loss

Grief is likely one of the hardest things your mind, body and soul

have had to face in your lifetime.

Navigating your grief in the real world requires more than talk therapy or a support group can offer. Your healing depends on you having these things:

  1. A unique healing plan to ignite hope, created just for you

  2. Impactful tools to navigate grief emotions in your daily life

  3. Techniques to strengthen your overall resilience

Truths About Grief

  • Your grief is unique. Be careful not to compare yourself to others.

  • Grief is hard work, period.

  • There are no timelines with grief, even if other people feel differently.

  • Support groups and therapy can have their limits when it comes to grief.

  • Grief can be messy. It's ok.

Myths About Grief

  • Grief should follow the 5 Stage Model.

  • Grief means weakness.

  • Healing means getting over your loss and moving on.

  • Therapy and support groups are always the most effective and fastest way to heal.

  • Healing means forgetting.

Is this you?

  • You’ve outgrown your support group. You've shared your story many times and witnessed other people's stories. Your group has served it's purpose.

You're ready for something that helps you on those days you don't have your meetings, which is most days!

  • You’'ve searched for strategies to heal your heartache, but a 12-18 month commitment for therapy is just too long.

You're ready for something that helps you immediately.

  • You’re ready to embrace resilience but engaging in those big Facebook groups hasn’t helped you find new meaning in your life.

You crave a new sense of purpose.

  • You're constantly comparing your grief to other people and wonder what’s wrong with you?

  • You’ve overbooked yourself with self care, home projects, and social gatherings, intending to “distract” yourself from your pain, but that's just left you feeling exhausted.

You’re ready to put your energy into something that will help you heal, not wear you out.

  • Your therapy sessions have become unfocused or stagnant without a clear plan or map for healing or for your future.

You’re ready for tools, techniques and an actual plan that helps you navigate grief in the real world with new purpose and peace.

Imagine this instead!

  • You navigate those unpredictable waves of grief with more ease and confidence in your daily life.

  • There's some normalcy in your life again.

  • You show yourself compassion, and you confidently and gently move through the healing process.

  • You are becoming you're own grief expert.

  • You feel a new sense of purpose and get up everyday feeling hopeful again.

  • You feel the relief of having let go of guilt, anger, fear, and worry, pain.

THE HARD TRUTH:

Waves of grief don't wait for when it's convenient for you. They don't wait for the day you have therapy or support group. Grief drops in unexpectedly, inconveniently, relentlessly.

3 Phases of Healing

Phase 1

Ignite Hope.

This is what allows my clients who are dedicated to their self care, to confidently and compassionately navigate those big waves of emotion, so they can feel some normalcy in their lives again and think about their future. RLA members work through The Tailored Hope Healing plan, a 7 step plan that works with their unique grief experience.

Phase 2

Emotional Liberation.

My clients let go of the guilt, anger, regret, worry and fear that keeps them stuck. This enables them to trust their ability to heal, to feel the sweetness of relief, and be inspired to see life through a new lens. RLA members gain access to The Sweet and Soulful Release method that enables them to let go of what is holding them back in their healing.

Phase 3

Embody Resilience.

This is the key to putting grief in the rear view mirror and allowing my clients the space and freedom to expand into a new life. It’s the key to growing around loss and strengthening resilience. RLA members gain access to hypnosis and NLP tools that anchor and install resilience.

"This is the best investment I've ever made."

~RLA member

I’d love to invite you to book a grief consult call with me.

What we will discuss on this call:

  • What healing strategies have you tried so far?

  • What do you want your life to look like in 6 months?

  • What do you think is the missing piece to getting the life you want?

  • I'll share how the Resilient Life Academy RLA can deepen your healing.

Sounds great, right?

Maybe also impossible?

But what I just described can be achieved through coaching.

Now, I know what you may be thinking…

  • If it were that easy, everyone would be doing it

  • It’s just too big of a risk, and I’m stressed enough as it is

  • This is just one more group practice coach out to make a buck, selling unrealistic strategies I don’t have the time or energy for

  • And you’re not wrong. If you try to wing it on your own, getting a group practice up and running can be a massive challenge.

  • But you don’t have to wing it. You don’t have to waste your time and money. With my help, you can avoid all the mistakes and go straight to success.

  • You already have what it takes. You have the vision. You have the resourcefulness. You have the leadership skills. It’s time to make it happen.

A Little About Me

Let me introduce myself. My name is Diane Bonilla and I’m a Grief Coach, seasoned Mental Health Therapist, and Certified Grief Informed Professional.

I have nearly 3 decades of experience as a mental health therapist guiding countless individuals through all kinds of loss.

Losing my Mom after a long struggle with Alzheimer's Disease inspires much of the work I do with my clients. At that time in my life, I was also faced with an empty nest as I launched my youngest to college. My own loss has helped me understand the complexity and uniqueness of grief on a personal level.

Hypnosis, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Guided Meditation have been an indispensable part of my own healing. It's the predominant reason I'm thriving today. Yet so many grief coaches and therapists don't include these powerful tools in their support. People who are suffering are missing out.

Well that's where I come in.

I’m a master practitioner of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and hypnotherapy. This enables me to coach and support my clients’ transformations with ground breaking tools.

As a result, my clients feel extremely confident and well cared for.

My clients start experiencing results quickly, which continues throughout our work together.

I am passionate about guiding people through their unique grief experiences and helping them connect with the life they desire and deserve!

So If you’re ready, I’d love to invite you to book a Grief Consult with me.

This is all possible through my program

As busy working women it often feels like there’s little left over for self care/ wellbeing or our own personal development. Women have dreams and ideas about their wants and needs, but are constantly saying “when will I ever find the time?” or indulging in the belief system that they don’t have what it takes.

What I teach is HOW to work on your mindset while you’re doing other things. How to look at situations differently while you’re living life / How to feel your emotions in a new way in the moment that allows them to truly heal instead of getting trapped in your body and mind wreaking havoc. When that work is complete- you no longer have to spend time on the chaos in your mind.

You are able to save yourself YEARS of mental drama that is no longer necessary.

  • You don’t need years of therapy to do this

  • You don’t need to process years of your past to make significant change

  • You simply need to have the desire to change and the willingness to try the strategies I teach to transform your life from the inside out.

Why start now?

  • Because it’s only going to get harder to live on the limited income a solo therapy practice can provide

  • Because you know you were meant for more, and it’s time to act on it

  • Because every moment you wait is an opportunity for meaningful collaboration, client transformation, and personal rejuvenation you won’t get back

So what do you say?

Let’s bring to life the group practice you’ve always wanted to lead.

The Solo to Group Practice Accelerator gives you all the strategy, how-to’s, feedback, accountability, and support you need to flourish as a group practice entrepreneur. It’s a complete guide to develop and launch your unique group practice. I promise you, you can make this happen.
