Crystal Bernard, LPC, NCC, BC-TMH
I am dedicated to supporting clients on their journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing. By fostering a safe, compassionate space, I help clients navigate challenges, build resilience, and embrace their full potential. I believe in everyone’s innate ability to grow and transform, creating a life of meaning and fulfillment aligned with their values.
Outside of my work, I find joy and balance as a proud Fur Mama to my pup, Macy. I’m passionate about reading, journaling, exploring nature, and savoring meaningful moments with friends and family. I strive to embrace a holistic approach to well-being, infusing intentionality and care into every aspect of my personal and professional life.
Therapy is a collaborative journey, and I'm here to support you as you take meaningful steps toward greater emotional and physical well-being. Together, we'll unlock your potential, nurture your growth, and help you step into the fullness of who you're meant to be.
