Donna Bernardi-Agnes

Hello, I'm Donna. Mental health symptoms and difficulties managing your life can arise from stressful situations, life transitions, grief and loss, addiction, and past or present trauma. These stressors can feel overwhelming and significantly impact your mental health and daily functioning. I'm here to assist you on your mental health journey, and together, we can find the best solutions and support for you to feel better and live a more productive, fulfilling life.

I graduated from Lesley University in Cambridge, MA, with a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology in 1993. Since then, I have been licensed as a mental health counselor (LMHC) since 1996 and as an alcohol and drug counselor (LADC I) since 2004. With over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, I've worked with adults in various settings, including inpatient and outpatient care, community mental health clinics, hospital psychiatric units, and correctional facilities. My primary focus is on helping adults dealing with depression, anxiety, substance use, and past trauma.

My approach to therapy is person-centered and trauma-informed, incorporating cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based strategies. I believe in empowering you to manage your symptoms effectively and make healthy, positive, and sustainable changes in your life. Our work together will be collaborative, and I will tailor my methods to suit your unique needs and goals.

If you're ready to take the next step towards improving your mental health and well-being, I invite you to reach out. Let's work together to navigate the challenges you're facing and help you achieve a more balanced and fulfilling life.
