Bernadette is a very professional and friendly therapist. Her methods are practical and focused on what you want to get out of the sessions. She helps me to feel comfortable and relxaed whilst discussing difficult topics and she supports me in feeling heard and my thoughts and feelings validated. The work we have done so far has already helped me prepare to deal with some of the current challenges I am facing and I look forward to continuing to work with her to support any mental challenges that I have to face in the future. I want to thank her for all the help she has provided so far!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Incredible! Very much helps me with asking the right questions, putting my chaotic information back into a concise manner while asking about it to make sure it's correct (which if I don't view the summary as correct, we take the time to talk about it). Also very keen/active/knowledgeable to find the right additional resources when I bring up a particular issue (e.g. Trying to work on having a 24h "ritual" before an exam to be calm --> "I'll send you a worksheet explaining total muscle relaxation and one for affirmations. Try it out and see if that works. Otherwise we can try different things!"). All in all: Super!
Berni has been incredible! Coming into therapy I was suffering severely with anxiety, and was sceptical of how much benefit I would get out of it, but Berni has helped me through the most difficult time of my life and supported me 100% throughout the process. Berni’s tailored approach ensures that I feel that I am supported as effectively as possible and has allowed me to make great progress with many factors in my life, and is not just limited to managing my anxiety
