Ana Fernandez, LCSW

Ana Fernandez, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist in California. I believe in the power of planting seeds of wellness through meaningful human connections. I understand there are probably a multitude of reasons that have prevented you from prioritizing your mental health in the past. Let's start where you are today, my approach will always include you as the main driver of your life. I am really happy you're here today. My approach I approach therapy utilizing a trauma-informed lens, while deliberately creating a brave space for you to feel comfortable when sharing difficult experiences in your life. I believe I am trained in Eye-Movement-Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Crisis Intervention, and Suicide prevention to support trauma healing and recovery. My focus In the past, I have worked with women, children, couples, and families who have struggled with poor self-worth, childhood trauma, and trouble with relationships. Currently, my focus is on supporting women, parents, and young adults to overcome grief, trauma, and poor self-worth. Some of the topics that I commonly address are children of immigrant parents, intergenerational trauma, women's issues, and parental stress/education. My communication style I strive to create a gentle tone in session that supports your nervous system's ability to engage meaningfully in therapy, as we navigate difficult conversations. I hope that you experience emotional safety in session, wherever you may be in your therapy journey. My journey to mental healthcare I care deeply about humans. So much so, that I made it my career to contribute to healing in my little corner of the world. I have specialized in skills that allow me to work with clients that have a special place in my heart such as traumatized individuals. I am especially interested in reducing the stigma against accessing mental health care throughout various communities.
