Allison Bernardo, Resident Counselor |Phone: 571-354-0053| Email: abernardo.fcwc@gmail.com

As a resident counselor, I am dedicated to supporting individuals and couples as they navigate challenges, heal, and create meaningful change. My client-centered approach focuses on creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I am especially passionate about working with LGBTQ+ clients, individuals exploring their identities, those experiencing grief or major life transitions, and clients healing from narcissistic abuse, relationship challenges, or infidelity.

I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults, and adults, as well as individuals participating in couples counseling who are seeking greater understanding of themselves and their relationships. At Falls Church Wellness Center, I provide support through evidence-based approaches while continuing to grow as a counselor. Whether you are navigating anxiety, relationship concerns, identity exploration, emotional wounds, or personal growth, I am here to support you in building resilience, self-compassion, and a stronger connection with yourself and others.
