Janette Hernandez, LMFT

Janette Hernandez, LMFT, brings eight years of clinical experience supporting adults, adolescents, and families navigating a range of life challenges. She practices from a person-centered perspective that honors each individual's knowledge about their life while applying a developed clinical skillset acquired over her career. As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California, she has worked with people facing relationship difficulties, trauma, depression, anxiety, and other concerns.

Janette integrates multiple theoretical approaches to craft treatment that fits each person's needs, drawing on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), attachment-based therapy, client-centered therapy, mindfulness techniques, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-focused therapy. She emphasizes collaboration and meeting clients where they are, helping them build practical skills and process difficult experiences.

Her areas of specialization include stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and food-related concerns, anger, self-esteem, career difficulties, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue. Additional focuses include abandonment and attachment issues, body image, codependency, commitment and communication problems, control issues, dependent personality traits, domestic violence, family of origin matters, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness. Janette tailors her approach to each person, combining evidence-informed methods with a respectful, client-centered stance.
