Connection, Empathy, & Trauma-focused
As a Resident in Counseling, I'm committed to supporting adults navigate very human challenges like anxiety, depression, “big T and/or little T” trauma, grief, addiction, tough life transitions, work stress, and much more. My approaches include IFS, ACT, and CBT through a trauma-focused lens. I can offer new tools/techniques to better understand yourself by exploring aspects like - thought patterns, parts of self, attachment style, etc. Together we can cultivate a kinder relationship with yourself as well as a better understanding of your relationship with others.
If this resonates with you or you have questions, please reach out to me via email [bernita@innerlight-counseling.com] or by phone [703-688-2432] to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation.
