Getting to know Layla Hernandez

Hello, my name is Layla Hernandez. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master?s in Social Work from the University of Southern California and a passion for mental health. I'm fluent in English and Spanish and take a client-focused approach to therapy. Together, we can work through thoughts, behaviors, symptoms, stresses, past experiences, and internal battles. I aim to support your personal growth and mental well-being. My approach I am committed to using evidence-based techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Solution-Focused CBT, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), to ensure the best outcomes for my clients. My focus I specialize in working with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, stress management, grief and loss, relationship issues, adjustment, and trauma. My communication style I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental environment and provide the assistance you need to understand your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. I work collaboratively with clients to gain insight, develop coping strategies, make positive changes, and enhance their quality of life. My journey to mental healthcare I started working in the mental health field over 18 years ago. As my experience grew, so did my passion for mental health and understanding of human behavior. I am passionate about helping clients understand their emotions, heal from trauma, overcome challenges, and improve their lives. My goals for you The treatment involves a collaborative, client-centered approach. We will work together to create goals by identifying what you want to achieve, why it?s essential, and when you want to accomplish this. We will focus on creating realistic, measurable, achievable treatment goals tailored to you to support your success in reaching your goals. My first session with you The first session is an opportunity to get to know each other by asking questions and understanding why you came to therapy.
