Getting to know Vanessa Hernandez

My name is Vanessa Hernandez, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Orange County, CA, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Alliant International University. I work with children, adolescents, and adults addressing a variety of concerns. I specialize in anxiety, stress, trauma, depression, ADHD, and relationship issues, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Brief Solution Focused, and Person-centered Therapy to empower my clients to make lasting and meaningful changes. My approach is highly collaborative and tailored to the specific needs of each client or family. Together, we determine which type of therapy best fits your goals, plan, and available resources. I enjoy working with a diverse range of people, including those new to therapy and clients with extensive experience. My approach helps uncover relational and behavioral patterns, cultivate individual strengths, and promote positive change. I assist clients in identifying problems, setting goals, and creating a plan for success. I believe the therapist-client relationship is one of the most important cornerstones for change. My communication style is warm, empathetic, and authentic. I want you to feel safe being yourself and to feel both understood and respected in all our interactions. My journey to becoming a licensed therapist began in high school and was confirmed through my education, community volunteering, and field experience. I am passionate about helping people heal, grow, and develop throughout their lives. My goal is to help you believe in your ability to make changes and achieve your goals. Together, we will identify the specific goals you want to accomplish and work toward them.
