ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Diane Bonilla
Let me introduce myself!
My name is Diane Bonilla and I’m a Grief Transformation Coach, seasoned Mental Health Therapist, and Certified Grief Informed Professional.
I began working with grief early in my therapy career, and after 25 years in the field, trained new clininicians in the specialty of grief and loss.
I’m also a wife, a mom of 2 amazing Gen Z young adults and proud mama to our 15 year old beagle, Brody. Other than the occasional snore, he is my faithful companion sleeping at my feet during most of my coaching sessions.
I am passionate about working with women experiencing relationship or life stage change or loss, often referred to as ambiguous grief. (empty nest, breakups, divorce, aging parents, sick family members, etc).
The loss of my mom after a long struggle with Alzheimer's Disease inspires much of the work I do with my clients. During those years of her illness, I was also faced with an empty nest as I launched my youngest to college. I understand the complexity and uniqueness of grief on a personal level.
As I work with each client and witness their resilience, I am honoring my mom and the beautiful caregiver she was to so many people.
My work and your healing are deeply meaningful to me.
I am uniquely positioned to guide and support my clients because of my personal and professional experience with grief and loss. And after years of dedication to helping clients heal, I have developed a unique and highly effective method that jump starts healing, connects clients to hope, and allows them to put grief in their rear view mirror.
Introducing my ground breaking, Grief Breakthrough Methodology!
My methodology allows me to guide clients through three essential pillars so they can build their new happy beginning!
Pillar one: Working together to Ignite Hope. This is what allows my clients who are dedicated to their self care, to confidently and compassionately navigate big emotions, so they can enjoy their lives and embrace plans for their future.
Pillar two: Emotional Liberation from guilt, anger, regret, worry and fear. This enables my clients who trust their ability to heal, to feel the sweetness of relief and be inspired to see life through a new lens.
Pillar three: 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 secret to connecting to a new purpose.
My Grief Breakthrough Methodology practically guarantees that your grief transformation happens faster and with better results than talk therapy or anything else you’ve tried!
So If you’re ready, I’d love to invite you to book a Grief Breakthrough Strategy call.

I’m multipassionate:
I’ve loved music for as long as I can remember. It’s a part of who I am and something I love to do. I recorded an album in Nashville (before streaming was a thing) and they are still some of my favorite songs to this day. I believe there’s room for you to achieve one of your bucket list items too!! Check out this tune on perfectionism… Pretty fitting for women like us!

I’m a busy working professional too:
I get it.. the struggle is real. I’m juggling sports / therapies / school events / meetings / work / household responsibilities / etc and it’s a lot. It’s hard to slow down - to know exactly how to spend our time and how to show up as our best selves in all the roles we play. But finding emotional freedom is what it’s all about while being able to enjoy and appreciate our one and only life in everything we do.
I’m inspired:
I’m inspired to lead others to change and self discovery. I’m eager to learn and to create opportunities where collectively we can grow from a shared experience. I’ve hosted vision board workshops and led other virtual and in person events that allowed women to dream about what’s possible in their lives. It’s who I am and what I have incorporated into this program as well. You are not alone!
I’m Obsessed:
I’m obsessed with understanding human behavior, mindset and solving problems. I am curious to a fault and have a passion for studying personal development and self improvement that I apply to help me better understand what’s needed to help my clients be more present and enjoy their lives. I ponder my client’s problems and develop content designed to help them untangle their anxiety and overthinking in the shortest amount of time possible. If you want someone who is ALL IN…. I’m your girl!!
