Background and approach
Bernina also helps people coping with chronic pain, illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns, and guilt or shame. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs and goals. She uses a mix of approaches, including Attachment-Based Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered methods, and mindfulness practices.
These tools are used to increase awareness, change unhelpful patterns, and try out different ways of relating to others and to oneself. Bernina is comfortable working in English and Bosnian. She supports people who are located in Texas and also accepts international clients.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative - she listens first, then helps plan small, achievable steps. Starting therapy involves picking a session format and making a plan together.

Online support
How attachment work and evidence-based tools translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of connection and safety in relationships. Online work can use that lens to help clients notice how they bond, react to closeness or distance, and try new ways of connecting with others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still move toward what matters to them. In remote sessions ACT exercises often include simple values clarification, mindfulness practices, and small behavioral experiments to do between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT in an online setting uses brief exercises, thought records, and practical homework to produce steady, measurable change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their concerns, goals, and preferences. That conversation may shift over time as progress is made or new needs appear, so plans are revisited together.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging let people share updates, ask quick questions, and practice new skills between sessions. These options add flexibility and can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
