About Bernadette

Bernadette Holyoke is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who centers work around attachment and client-focused care. She combines practical tools with a calm, direct style to help people manage mood, trauma, and relationship concerns. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and shape sessions around each person's priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are used to teach skills for emotion regulation, thinking patterns, and coping with stress.

Background and approach

Over seven years of practice have included support for people facing depression, anxiety, bipolar mood swings, grief, and addiction. She also helps with parenting strain, caregiver stress, and challenges related to adoption, abandonment, or attachment issues. When trauma and abuse are part of a person’s history, she offers structured tools to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

She also addresses communication problems, codependency, and anger through clear, step-by-step strategies. Her approach aims to make therapy understandable and approachable. Sessions focus on real-life skills, movement toward goals, and gradual change rather than quick fixes.

People who prefer a supportive, practical therapist will find an emphasis on collaboration and steady progress.

Online support

Attachment and Skill-Based Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand attachment issues and improve how they connect and relate to others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches acceptance of difficult feelings while helping people move toward values-based goals. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes where avoidance gets in the way.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether attachment exploration, ACT, CBT, or a combination best fits the situation, and adjust as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or when lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, homework discussion, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and continue consistent work toward their goals.
