Bernadette Gurney

My communication style

I do a lot of active listening and paraphrasing to ensure you feel heard. I provide psycho-education on anxiety and depression to help you understand your feelings and experiences. My approach is warm, empathetic, and collaborative.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist to be someone's Dae. I was in therapy as a teen and hated it until I met Dae, who supported and listened to me in a way others had not. She changed how I saw therapy, and I want to offer that same experience to others.

My goals for you

I work with you to identify the goals you'd like to reach and modify them so they're realistic and achievable with support. We collaborate to ensure your goals align with your values and needs.

Our first session

We'll discuss confidentiality, its limits, and what therapy can look like for you. I want to understand your needs and how you'd like our sessions to feel. It's a collaborative conversation to set the foundation for our work together.

I identify as...
