Greetings! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. I received my Masters from Our Lady of The Lake University. I have served in counseling services for 10 years. By our Most High Yah's grace, I get to help adults and adolescents struggling with trauma obtain an emotional sense of security when life stressors have disrupted their way of being.
Our first session together will entail us sharing a brief introduction, and then identifying the areas of difficulty that are creating barriers for you. This will help us to work collaboratively to devise an effective treatment plan to render the best possible outcome
Having worked as a counselor for 10 years my clients will find that I believe in the Most High Yahweh and that I can do nothing without him. I will never force my beliefs upon anyone but I will always assert that whatever good comes through me is only because of my HIM. I strive to love everyone with every waking day of my life and every client will be treated with the utmost dignity and respect no matter their life story.
I am humbled that my clients allow me to journey with them through some of the most difficult situations in their lives. My clients come to me when they are ready to confront the past and sometimes recent events without fear of judgment and they soon learn that they truly are not alone in this journey after one or two sessions. I am here to help you work through the trauma of being in combat zones, domestic violence, physical and sexual assault, and or any other extremely stressful event that has transpired that has caused you to come to an impasse in life. I believe the Most High Yah has me here as a gentle reminder that he is the healer who desires to manifest himself through ordinary people like you and me. One individual at a time.
EMDR
I have trained in EMDR for over 4 years and have found this treatment to be effective with individuals whose lives have been impacted by very stressful events. This trauma can prove to be debilitating for military veterans, individuals who have survived sexual assault and or molestation, active shooting in the workplace, and accidents that led to the premature death of colleagues, family, or friends.
Couples Counseling
I've worked with couples for 10 years, and no two are ever the same. We work collaboratively to improve marital conflict, pre-marital counseling from a Follower of Christ perspective as a Believer, divorce, and co-parenting resolutions, and discover methods to improve their ability to obtain effective communication.
Eclectic
I have learned when assisting others working through the years with symptoms of grief, anxiety or depression various techniques from different modalities have lent itself to the client's healing and recovery one life at a time.

Bernadette was very kind and compassionate. Each session, she provided a safe space for me to share my thoughts and helped me manage with my trauma and anxiety by teaching me various coping techniques. Even my close family members have told me they noticed I seem a lot more at-ease now compared to before therapy with Bernadette. I recommend her if you're looking for someone who knows how to effectively utilize EMDR therapy.
