Claudine Bernier, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Hello, my name is Courtney, and I believe the power of connection can have a profound impact on a person's mental health. I love helping people and watching people grow. I enjoy learning about others so I can help them see their potential and learn from the challenges they have faced in their lives.
I believe that effective mental health care starts with trust, respect, and open communication. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free space where you feel comfortable discussing your concerns and experiences. I work with individuals facing a variety of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and other psychiatric conditions. Together, we'll focus on understanding your unique experiences and developing a treatment plan that aligns with your goals and values.
I take a thoughtful, compassionate, and individualized approach to psychiatric care. I believe effective mental health treatment begins with understanding each person’s unique experiences, symptoms, and treatment goals through a supportive and professional approach.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a background in both clinical practice and nursing education. This allows me to combine evidence-based psychiatric care with a practical understanding of the challenges many adults face in their day-to-day lives.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and ADHD through personalized psychiatric evaluations and medication management.
My goal is to provide a professional and supportive environment where individuals feel respected, understood, and actively involved in their treatment planning. Care is focused on supporting emotional wellness, symptom improvement, stability, and overall daily functioning.
If anxiety, depression, stress, or other mental health challenges have made it difficult to feel like yourself, you're not alone. I believe meaningful healing begins when you feel genuinely heard and supported. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide personalized, evidence-based care designed around your unique needs, not a one-size-fits-all plan. Together, we'll identify what's holding you back, build on your strengths, and create a clear path toward greater balance, confidence, and lasting emotional wellness.
I'm Gina, a licensed Bilingual Queer Dominican-York counselor whose therapeutic work lies in supporting a diverse population of adults in building greater awareness and capacity to live with greater awareness and lessen their suffering.
I’ve supported first-generation, queer, polyamorous, & immigrant adults in navigating addictive behaviors, traumatic experiences, attachment injury, and grief—experiences that can disrupt one’s ability to engage with life & relationships more fully.
I help ambitious adults who feel plateaued or stuck in their work, relationships, healing or personal growth. On the surface life may look solid, yet anxiety lingers, relationships feel strained, or old patterns keep showing up when they try to move forward in their work, relationships, or personal growth. You understand yourself intellectually, but the deeper patterns still feel outside your control. Often the coping strategies that once propelled you forward are now the very things holding you back. You may even know exactly what needs to change, yet still find yourself repeating the same reactions when pressure rises.
