Background and approach
Bernina listens first, then helps set small, concrete goals that fit everyday life. She adapts her approach as people make progress or face setbacks. Her work draws on several clear methods.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and changes small behaviors. Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to notice stress and reduce reactivity. Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand how early relationships affect current connections and trust.
People also use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take action even when feelings are difficult. Client-Centered Therapy guides the pace and focus from the person’s point of view. Together these approaches help with communication problems, commitment worries, grief, body image, and caregiver stress.
She offers sessions in English and Bosnian and accepts international clients. Bernina aims to make therapy fit busy lives by working collaboratively, explaining options clearly, and checking in about what feels most useful.

04Online support
How her approaches work in online therapy
Bernina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in clear, everyday ways. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so people can test and change unhelpful patterns. This is useful for anxiety, stress, and communication issues. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult feelings, identify what matters most, and take small steps toward those values even when emotions are uncomfortable.Finding the right approach happens together. She will ask about your goals, daily routine, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Then she tailors methods and homework to your needs and pace, checking in regularly to adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let you work face to face from wherever you are. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work. Live chat or text can be used for quick check-ins, brief reflections, or to keep momentum between longer appointments. These options make scheduling easier and let people keep therapy consistent alongside family, school, or work commitments.
