Getting to know Victor Hernandez
I am a Marriage and Family Therapist, licensed since February 2012, and have been working with children and adults for over 25 years. I am originally from Corpus Christi Texas and moved to California in 1998. I graduated from Texas A&M Corpus Christi in 1986 earning a degree in Communication and in 1992 a Master of Science in Professional Counseling. In my career experience I have worked at a psychiatric hospital, geriatric mental health center, nonprofit agencies working with children and their families, I have facilitated diversion classes, worked in a private practice setting and provided clinical supervision for unlicensed therapist.
I have worked with patients dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, conduct issues, oppositional defiant disorder, ADHD, school peer issues and a lot of emphasis on relationship issues. I am trained in Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Brainspotting, Positive Parenting, and Managing Adaptive Practices.
I am passionate about helping people deal with life challenges, as I think everyone reaches a point of questioning themselves. When you are in distress to a point it is impacting important relationships, you’re not alone and I recommend talking to a professional mental health provider. A lot of people deal with depression and anxiety due to life transitions, loss of a loved one, anxiety about the unknown, future, sudden traumatic event or past trauma, relationship issues, drug and alcohol addiction, career stress, boredom and sometimes just being too hard on yourself.
I believe in working as a team, with you being the driver in your life and me the passenger, facilitating different interventions that aim to improve your functioning. At the onset, we will examine what are the main issues you are dealing with and determine your expectations for therapy.
