Braden Bernard, LSW
He/Him/His
I love working with the black sheep—those who feel that their values and identities are at odds with their families and society, those who constantly grapple with feeling like they are too much or not enough. My goal is for you to recognize your power and understand your contribution.
I am known to have a warm, yet direct style when practicing, and often utilize humor to help create a relaxed atmosphere. I believe that through exploration of one's personality and relationships, people are able to outgrow a heavy, conflicted sense of self.
I practice in a psychodynamic, yet pragmatic manner and am interested in helping people to develop increased personal options, as opposed to controlling or eliminating behavior. I can appreciate wherever you are on your journey and welcome your inquiry today.
