About Bernina
Bernina Alagic is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and attention challenges. Sessions are conducted in English and Bosnian, and she accepts international clients.
Clients often come when they keep putting others first, struggle to set boundaries, or feel stuck after painful relationships. Bernina talks through practical steps for communicating clearly, managing intense feelings, and recognizing unhelpful patterns. She uses everyday language and concrete tools rather than jargon.
Her approach blends several methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors feed one another and teaches simpler ways to respond. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and committed action so people can make choices that match what matters to them. Attachment-Based work addresses early relationship patterns that still shape reactions today.
In sessions she leans on client-centered ideas to follow each person's pace and priorities. Mindfulness practices are offered to help with grounding during stress or dissociation. Treatment plans evolve from short, clear goals and reviewable steps rather than long, vague promises.
Practical matters are handled up front. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To get started clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, concrete steps toward those values. In online sessions this often looks like setting short goals and tracking specific actions between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thought patterns and testing different behaviors; virtually this can mean practicing new responses and reviewing outcomes together. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns affect current reactions, helping clients notice repeated habits in their partnerships and family interactions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each client to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That means trying an approach, checking in, and shifting course when something isn't helping.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm which options are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and remove travel time. They also let people practice communication skills in the contexts where patterns actually appear, then bring those experiences back to discuss next steps.
