Bernadette Wood

My communication style

I have a laid-back approach and want you to feel comfortable discussing anything with me.

My journey to mental healthcare

I started my career as a child protective services social worker. I began working as a therapist and discovered how rewarding the work is for me, so I changed my career.

My goals for you

Clients and I work together to develop goals that are short-term, measurable, and include rewards.

Our first session

In the first session, I usually start by having clients tell me why they are interested in therapy and what issues they want to address in our work together. I then provide clients with some resources to help them start to work on their self-care and mindfulness immediately, and often, homework is assigned.
