Nicole Bernier

I have over 18 years of experience doing clinical work with individuals and couples. I specialize in sex therapy and holistic wellness with diverse people seeking to increase intimacy, improve communication surrounding sex, manage sexual dysfunction, increase boundaries, emotional regulation and self care practices. I offer sex positive, solution focused therapy, to people with various identities and orientations, who are monogamous, consensually non-monogamous, in plural relationships, engage in kinks and non traditional lifestyles. I also am certified in breath work, which provides clients with practical evidence based tools to regulate the nervous system and regulate emotions.

I offer sex therapy and relationship therapy that provides a compassionate, culturally sensitive respectful space. My approach is collaborative, relational, solution focused, utilizing CBT, attachment style and psychodynamic approaches. I explore holistic wellness, incorporate mindfulness techniques, breath work and meditation to facilitate change. Clients should expect a client centered, empathetic and direct approach utilizing client’s strengths, and beliefs systems.

Therapy can be short or long term focusing on holistic wellness and assisting people with improving interpersonal relationships, managing daily stressors, decreasing anxiety, developing self care routines and improving their quality of life.
