Nicholas Bernard, LMHCA

Hello, my name is Nicholas Bernard and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate with a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University. I believe that the cornerstone to successful outcomes in therapy lies in the trust, safety, and understanding that is formed in the counselor and client relationship. When this is established, clients can then work freely in an environment of openness and safety where the counselor is able to offer therapeutic insight and tools for personal development. I believe that symptoms are opportunities to explore the disconnections that arise in one's life, and if examined and reflected upon clients may be able to form new perspectives where they are able to learn to live differently allowing for personal healing and growth.
