Very knowledgeable and effective psychotherapist. She uses evidence based CBT and focuses her sessions on progress which sometimes clinically warrant navigating challenging waters. So if you are about making progress and ready, she's a good fit. Bernie is thorough and ensures regular follow up visits at the right intervals while highly individualizing each individual treatment plan.

Imagine a talk show host who covers sensationalized topics becoming a therapist. This describes Bernadette. I received therapy bi-weekly for a few months and I wish I would have trusted my gut as soon as I realized something was off. Caught her not listening and staring off into space during a session several times, looked at the drama of a situation instead of the core issue (\I don't think people should be posting pictures on Facebook looking happy while they are going through a break up\), and it felt like the minute my therapy sessions were over, she would rush me out of the office. Taking her advice caused issues and fights in my relationship which I suspect was done on purpose. She also referred me to a psychiatrist who talked down to me and made rude remarks. It's sad that the same people who are supposed to be trying to help you are actually ruining your life. My recommendation? Stay away! Look for another therapist!
I have Complex PTSD and seen therapists for the past 20 yrs. I saw a therapist for close to 15 years Who abused her power over me and broke every rule in the book causing me a lot of harm. I left her for a therapist who had trauma as one of her specialties and saw her for three years. This therapist did not have the skill set to see me and in the end traumatized me more. I had given up on therapy until an online forum told me what to look for in a therapist. That is why I picked Bernadette. Bernadette is very professional and knowledgeable in regards to trauma. She is the first therapist to ever understand me, validate me, explain to me why what my first therapist did was so wrong and tell me it is not my fault. She has also explained how the other therapist was negligent and caused further harm. Before I had given up on myself, therapy, relationships and the chance to heal. But I no longer feel that way, Bernadette has me seeing another therapist For DBT to help me process the trauma work I am doing with her. She also meets with other therapists to discuss her difficult cases so she can give the best therapy possible. I honestly did not think I could ever bring myself to trust another therapist with my most vulnerable and raw emotions. But I have learned to trust that she has my best interests and the skillset to help me heal from 53 years of trauma.
I am an APSW and I see Bernadette for supervision of my clinical hours. I have found her to be very thoughtful and skilled in her discussion of difficult cases. She has provided many great practical ideas of how to progress with a client that I have implemented with successful outcomes. She is also warm, supportive and encouraging. I would highly recommend her as a therapist or to provide supervision.
DO NOT HIRE THIS MEDIATOR!!!!!! She is extremely unprofessional. She filters in her own thoughts and views- values and beliefs aside from what you and the party are discussing. VERY OPINIONATED. She will try to start arguments between you and the other party. I have had experience with other mediators and she is by far the most unprofessional that I’ve ever come across. Save your money ....she tries to milk the sessions tries to continuously get you to come back in for more - tries to stir up issues - she is absolutely beyond terrible!!!!
