01About Bernadette
Bernadette Holyoke is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. She draws on several therapy styles to help people manage mood and trauma-related concerns. Her approach aims to make therapy feel approachable and practical for everyday life.
She uses client-centered work to build a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. Cognitive behavioral tools are added to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Dialectical skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.

She also focuses on parenting stress, relationship and communication problems, addiction concerns, grief, and self-esteem struggles. Additional areas include attachment and abandonment issues, blended family stress, and caregiver strain.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-focused. Practical exercises, skill practice, and real-world planning are common parts of her work. She also incorporates compassion-focused ideas when burnout or compassion fatigue are present.
People can expect straightforward language and a steady, empathetic presence in sessions. Bernadette emphasizes finding what works for each person rather than following a single rigid method. She welcomes questions and helps people make a plan that fits their daily life.

04Online support
Approach-driven care delivered online
Bernadette draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. ACT focuses on clarity about values and taking meaningful action even when feelings are difficult, which helps with motivation and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build healthier emotional connections. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy teaches practical skills to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods together to see what helps. This collaborative process means approaches can be mixed and adapted over time to fit the person's needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, chat can be a shorter option for focused check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options are designed to give flexibility and help therapy fit into daily life.
