Getting to know Erika Marie Hernandez

Hi! My name is Erika Hernandez. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in California and Utah. I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University, Los Angeles. I have experience in trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. My passion is working alongside my clients, including adolescents and adults, to help bring healing to those who have experienced traumatic or stressful events. My approach I have been trained in a range of research-based practices, including Seeking Safety and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I like to balance my practice by using techniques from various theorists, combining cognitive and solution-focused methods to help my clients improve their overall quality of life. My focus I work with adolescents and adults (ages 12 and up) facing personal, professional, and interpersonal challenges. My experience includes trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship issues, and life transitions. My communication style I provide a warm, open, and non-judgmental approach when working with clients. I strive to help them develop healthy perceptions of themselves and strengthen their family and personal relationships so they can feel healthy, whole, and safe. My journey to therapy I have always had a passion for helping people, so entering this profession felt natural. It is both humbling and gratifying to support someone through difficult journeys or help them recognize their resilience and self-worth. My goals for you I work collaboratively with my clients to establish treatment goals that ensure therapy is meaningful and tailored to their needs. My first session with you I enjoy getting to know my clients to build rapport and create a safe working relationship. We begin by discussing goals and what the client hopes to achieve, so we can develop a clear plan for treatment.
