Adolfo Hernandez, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Adolfo!

My approach to therapy focuses on your personal strengths, cognitive restructuring, increased insight and awareness, improved overall functioning, and problem-solving skills.

My focus

I have helped children, teens, and adults who suffer from depression, anxiety, alcohol abuse, panic attacks, substance abuse, bipolar disorder, anger, stress, family problems, and many others.

My approach

I do not rely on a single approach; instead, I focus on the client's goals. Moreover, I use Cognitive Behavioral, Existential, and Prolonged Exposure for individuals who experienced traumatic experiences, stress and anger management, Problem-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic therapy, and many more.

My communication style

It's easy for me to communicate with individuals by respecting, encouraging, and empowering them. When appropriate, humor could break barriers and change how individuals approach life and difficulties.

My journey to mental healthcare

Based on my own difficulties and struggles, I can understand and empathize with others. I always wanted to know how our minds and experiences help us or affect us, and find our way to deal with, heal, and face life.

My goals for you

Goal setting is determined by your exploration, expectations, and needs. You know what you want and need, so helping you make your own decisions becomes a priority.

Our first session

To begin to know each other and work together to find happiness, skills, and change how you want your life to become.
